Urgent Recall: Plastic Found in Aldi’s Chicken Product

A big recall just hit some store shelves, and not because the food went bad or had any issues that contained deadly viruses. It's because of plastic contaminants that may be found inside the product.

The Product Being Recalled

BM Foods Ltd., which manufactures Aldi's Chicken Cooked Meat Trimmings, has just recalled 400-gram packs after the Food Standards Agency confirmed that the food contained pieces of plastic, making it unsafe to consume.

Aldi is now asking their customers to return the product and not consume it.

The Details On The Recall

The products that were affected will have a batch code of 50328453 and have a best if used by date of July 4th, so if you've frozen any of the product recently, you may want to check on it.

According to the official statement released by the company, there is a risk that pieces of plastic may be present in the meat, posing a serious safety hazard to those who may consume it. No injuries have been reported related to this product.

The recall is considered a Class 1 food safety risk, which typically indicates that consumption of the food could lead to serious health consequences. The concern in this case centers around a choking hazard of a foreign object.

A popular yogurt brand also just recalled its product after another plastic contamination risk, but the two incidents are unrelated to each other.

If you do have any of the affected product, you should get rid of it immediately or return it to your place of purchase for a full refund.
