2,300 Pounds of Chicken Products Recalled From Queens-Based Business

A Queens-based business is recalling about 2,330 pounds of chicken tender products that may be contaminated with plastic and misbranded, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced Tuesday.

The breaded chicken breast tenders were produced at Schreiber Processing Corp. in Maspeth on Dec. 8 and packaged on Dec. 9.

The items being recalled are the 10-pound boxes containing “Meal Mart BATTERED & BREADED CHICKEN BREAST TENDERS.” These products bear item code 03-CTB, production code 0246 and establishment number “P-787” inside the USDA mark of inspection.

These items were shipped to locations in New Jersey, New York and Washington.

Locations that have recalled the product include:

• Riverdale Kosher Market, located at 5683 Riverdale Ave. in Riverdale
• Kosher World/Always Fresh, located at 1913 Cornaga Ave. in Far Rockaway
• Meal Mart on Main Street, located at 7210 Main St. in Flushing
• Mountain Fruit, located at 1523 Avenue M in Brooklyn

This list does not include all retail locations that have received the recalled product, so the FSIS says to use the product-specific information to help identify the items.

Customers who have purchased these products should not consume them. Throw away the product or return it to the place of purchase, FSIS says.

The contamination issue was first discovered after the company received a customer complaint. No injuries or illnesses related to these products have been reported. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider, FSIS says.
