Less than two weeks after pulling Kirkland's Signature Pine Nut Hummus from its shelves, Costco has removed another item due to a food safety issue detected by customers.
On October 29, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced that Foster Farms, a poultry brand with products sold at Costco, has recalled almost 148,000 pounds of fully cooked frozen chicken breast patties. The move came after consumers reported the presence of hard, clear plastic pieces embedded in the food items.
The affected products, which were produced on August 11, 2022, were shipped to Costco distribution centers in Arizona, California, Colorado, Utah, and Washington, and may have been distributed to additional Costco locations. The 80-ounce plastic bags display a "Best By" date of August 11, 2023, the establishment number "P-33901," the lot code "3*2223**" on the back edge of the package, as well as the number "7527899724" under the product's barcode.
