A new food recall which might impact our children and families:
Almost 30,000 pounds of frozen chicken patty products have been recalled by Tyson Foods, Inc., reportedly after consumer complaints of foreign matter pieces in the product. The firm reported the situation to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Information Service (FSIS) and recalled the 29 oz. frozen plastic bag packages containing "Tyson FULLY COOKED FUN NUGGETS BREADED SHAPED CHICKEN PATTIES," with a Best if Used By date of SEP 04, 2024.
Specific lot codes should be checked in the following FSIS announcement:

One reportedly minor oral health injury has been noted in the announcement, and the FSIS is concerned that the product may be present in consumers' freezers at this time. The FSIS also advises anyone concerned about an injury or illness from consuming the nuggets to contact their healthcare provider.
Consumers who have purchased the product obviously should not consume it and should either discard it or return it to place of purchase. Additional valuable information is available in the FSIS announcement already noted above.
Take best care of you, as you roll into an Amazing Autumn!
