A voluntary recall by one of the largest manufacturers of packaged frozen chicken in the United States is underway. Foster Farms, Farmerville, La. Establishment, announced the recall on October 29, and the flagged products were shipped to Costco stores throughout the western United States.

Foster Farms has recalled nearly 150,000 pounds of packaged chicken shipped to Costco stores in the states of California, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Washington, and possibly other Pacific Northwest markets due to a chance of contamination by foreign matter (plastics). The cooked and frozen patties were produced by Foster Farms on August 11, 2022, according to information found on the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Food Safety and Inspection Services websites.
