USDA FSIS issues public health alert over raw chicken products that claim to be fully cooked
Published:

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is issuing a public health alert for ready-to-eat (RTE) stuffed chicken product because the product may not be fully cooked due to underprocessing.

The RTE broccoli stuffed chicken breast product was produced by Vanguard Culinary Group, LTD, a Fayetteville, N.C. establishment, on Dec. 3.

The problem was discovered when consumers reported to FSIS that the product labeled as fully cooked appeared to be raw.

FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers’ refrigerators or freezers.

FSIS is issuing this public health alert to ensure that consumers are aware that this product should not be consumed. A recall was not requested because the product is no longer available for consumers to purchase.

This item was shipped to retail locations in Alabama, Florida, New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia.

Product is subject to the public health alert:

As of the posting of this recall, there have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.

Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
