    180,000 pounds of chicken wings recalled

    Pilgrim's Pride recalls breaded chicken wings

    By the CNN Wire Staff
    December 30, 2010 8:42 p.m. EST

    Call Pilgrim's Pride at its toll-free line at 800-321-1470 if you have questions about its voluntary recall.

    (CNN) -- A voluntary recall of breaded chicken wings will take a bite out of the nation's supply during the flurry of college football bowl games.

    Pilgrim's Pride on Thursday recalled about 180,000 pounds of Pierce Hot & Spicy Breaded Chicken Wings and Sweet Georgia Brand Hot & Spicy Breaded Chicken Wings because they contain egg, an undeclared allergen, officials said.

    The U.S. Agriculture Department's Food Safety and Inspection Service said the problem was discovered by the company through a labeling review as part of its quality-assurance program. Egg is not shown among ingredients on the labels, the agency said.

    The recalled products, which carry the item codes 1703 and 95122, were sold to food service distributors in 20-pound and 10-pound cases, respectively. They were produced in the company's plant in Boaz, Alabama.

    There have been no reports of adverse reactions because of the consumption of the products, the company and federal officials said.

    Each uncooked product bears the designation "P-413" printed adjacent to a coded date, as well as coded designations of "0001," "0007," "0029," "0044," "0056," "0058," "0063," "0075," "0098," "0109," "0119," "0135," "0188," "0215," "0230," "0244," or "0279."

    The wings were produced on various dates between January 1, 2010, and October 6, 2010, and sent to 30 food service distribution centers for further distribution to restaurants, the inspection service and company said.

    Consumers or distributors with questions regarding the recall may call Pilgrim's toll-free line at 800-321-1470.

    NO AMNESTY

    Don't reward the criminal actions of millions of illegal aliens by giving them citizenship.

    What a waste. A recall? Why not just warn people and anyone with an allergy can request a refund. Seriously, if they don't know about the recall, they will eat them. The chicken is only hazardous to a very small portion (1-2% according to CMA) of the population.

    Besides, can you be allergic to eggs and not chicken? Why would someone allergic to egg proteins be eating chicken?

    I know it's the principle of the thing... the label should be accurate. Seems there is a better way of handling this.
