Conagra Brands is recalling about 2,094,186 pounds of P.F. Chang frozen Chicken Pad Thai and Chicken Fried Rice because they contain undeclared milk, one of the major food allergens, that is not listed on the label. Anyone who is lactose intolerant, or who is allergic to milk could have a serious reaction if they eat these products. No illnesses or allergic reactions have been reported to date in connection with this recall.
The recalled products are P.F. Chang Home Menu Chicken Pad Thai and Chicken Fried Rice. They are frozen, heat treated, not fully cooked, and not shelf stable. These products were produced on dates between October 1, 2018 and April 11, 2019, with “Best By” dates of September 26, 2019 through April 5, 2020. The USDA has printed a chart that lists all of the products that are recalled. And you can see pictures of product labels at the USDA web site.
