Perdue Recall

perdue logo

530 pounds of Perdue chicken products have been recalled due to misbranding and undeclared allergens.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has declared this a high health risk.

The Salisbury Daily Times reports that the ready-to-cook chicken breast tenderloin fritters were labeled as the Homestyle Chicken Tender Fritter.

The product contains eggs, an allergen, that was not identified on the label.

The product was shipped to locations in Florida, Maryland and Washington D.C.

There have been no confirmed cases of adverse effects from the mislabeling.
