Today’s edition of food being recalled comes to us from P.F. Chang’s and their frozen meals.
The USDA issued a release saying that 3,806 pounds of frozen chicken and beef products may have metal in them. According to the release, the metal fragments are 2-9 millimeters in diameter, and are curled and shiny. The shards also got lost in the sauce.
From the release:
The frozen chicken and beef entrée items were produced on June 13, 2016 and June 22, 2016. The following products are subject to recall:
- 22-oz. plastic bagged meal packages of “P.F. Chang’s Home Menu Brand Signature Spicy Chicken.” with “Use By” date of 6/08/17 and case code 5006616500.
- 22-oz. plastic bagged meal packages of “P.F. Chang’s Home Menu Brand Mongolian Style Beef.” with “Use By” date of 6/17/17 and case code 5006617400.
The products subject to recall bear establishment number “EST. 233” or “EST. P-115” inside the USDA mark of inspection. These items were shipped to distributors and retail locations in Arkansas, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Vermont, and Wisconsin.
The problem was discovered when an employee was dispensing sugar from a supplier for sauce formulation. So far, nobody has had any reactions or injuries due to this unfortunate recall.
So if you have some of this in your fridge, dump it ASAP.
