More Than 60 Tons Of Tyson Chicken Nuggets Recalled

Tyson Foods is voluntarily recalling more than 130,000 pounds of cooked chicken nuggets because they may contain hard plastic, the US Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety Inspection Service said Tuesday. The recall was issued after a customer reported finding "foreign material" in a chicken nugget product."According to Tyson Foods, the plastic material ranged in size from 21mm in length and 6.5mm in diameter and may have come from a round, hard plastic rod used to connect a plastic transfer belt. The firm said the products pass through a metal detector, but the plastic is not detectable to this technology," the USDA recall announcement said.
