Koch Foods recalls almost 1,500 pounds of frozen chicken
Monday, March 31, 2008
FAIRFIELD — Almost 1,500 pounds of frozen chicken breasts were recalled by Koch Foods of Fairfield due to a labeling error, the U.S. Food Safety and Inspection Service announced.
The FSIS said Koch Foods voluntarily recalled approximately 1,420 pounds of frozen chicken products because the pre-browned, raw products were labeled as "pre-cooked," therefore not providing the proper preparation instructions.
Extras
Some consumers could assume the raw chicken is fully cooked, officials said.
Under recall are 10-pound cases of "Koch Foods Fully Cooked Breaded Chicken Breast Fillet with Rib Meat," each case containing two 5-pound bags. Each case bears the establishment number "P-20795" inside the U.S. Department of Agriculture mark of inspection. There is also a production code of "24837-2," a date code of "B03982" and a product code of "86861" printed on the label.
The frozen chicken products were distributed in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Tennessee. The product was intended for use by food service institutions, according to FSIS officials.
