Here are 3 Costco food recalls you should know about right now

Foster Farms, a Louisiana-based poultry brand with products sold at Costco, recalled approximately 148,000 pounds of fully cooked frozen chicken breast patty products that may be contaminated with hard clear pieces of plastic. The announcement was prompted after several consumer complaints reported hard clear plastic embedded in the patties.

Per a notice from the USDA, the products in question were shipped to Costco distribution centers in Arizona, California, Colorado, Utah and Washington, and may have been further distributed to Costco retail locations. The 80-oz. plastic bag packages were produced on August 11, 2022, and have a “Best By” date of August 11, 2023. They also have an establishment number of “P-33901” and lot code “3*2223**” on the back edge of the packaging, as well as “7527899724” under the product’s barcode.

At this time, there have been “no confirmed reports of injury associated with the consumption” of the chicken patties, FSIS reports. However, the agency’s report did explain that the plastic pieces “could be sharp and possibly cause an injury.” They advised consumers who have purchased the recalled products not to consume them, but to throw them out or return them to the store instead.
