Throw Out These Perdue Chicken Tenders Sold at BJ’s Clubs in NJ
The federal government has issued a public health alert for frozen chicken sold at BJ's Wholesale Club.
According to the Food Safety and Inspection Service, the agency received a complaint that a chicken tender sold by Purdue had a small piece of clear plastic and blue dye inside it.
The alert only applies to Purdue's gluten-free frozen ready-to-eat chicken tenders produced on Jul. 12, 2022, and shipped to BJ's throughout the country.
They are packaged in 42 oz. plastic bags with a “Best if Used By: 07 12 23” and a lot number of 2193 above the use by date. An establishment number of “P-33944” is printed below the "Best If Used By" date.
In a statement, the FSIS said a recall was not requested as the product is no longer being sold.
"FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers’ freezers. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase."
There have been no reports of adverse health effects or illness due to the chicken, according to the FSIS.
