Plain-English summary
George's Inc., a Springdale, Arkansas establishment, is recalling approximately 29,200 pounds of seasoned raw chicken breast strips. The recall was initiated due to misbranding and the presence of undeclared allergens. The products are formulated with soy protein and monosodium glutamate (MSG), but were released with labels for "George's Boneless Skinless Breast Pieces with Rib Meat," which do not declare these ingredients.
The affected products are 40 lb. bulk cartons of "GEORGE'S BONELESS SKINLESS BREAST PIECES W/RIB MEAT" with case code 4790. They were produced and packaged between December 21 and December 23, 2013, and distributed to distributors in Tennessee and Iowa. The issue was discovered after a customer complaint noted that the product appeared seasoned despite the label indicating plain breast pieces. An investigation revealed that the incorrect labels were mistakenly applied to allergen-containing products packaged nearby.
FSIS and the company have received no reports of adverse reactions from consuming these products. Consumers who are concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider. Those with questions about the recall can contact Ali Perry at (479) 927-7256.
