California-based Foster Farms is recalling 6,165 pounds of ready-to-eat grilled chicken breast strips that contain wheat and soy, which are known allergens and are not declared on the product label, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) said.
The following products are subject to recall:
4.5 lb. cases containing 12, 6-oz. trays of "Foster Farms Grilled Chicken Breast Strips Boneless & Skinless With Rib Meat 97% Fat Free," with an identifying case code of "000606."
The recalled product bears the establishment number "P-20923" and a use-by date of "JUN 22 2013" printed on each tray.
The product was produced on April 23, 2013, and was distributed to retail establishments in Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Washington.
The problem was discovered as a result of a customer complaint and occurred because the company inadvertently used labels for another chicken product it produces that does not contain wheat or soy.
The company has not received any reports of adverse reactions associated with consumption of these products, the FSIS clarified.
