Blount Fine Foods, a McKinney, Texas establishment, recalls approximately 6,384 pounds of chicken tortilla soup products that may be contaminated with extraneous material, specifically pieces of gray nitrile glove, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced Thursday.
Officials said the fully cooked, ready-to-eat chicken tortilla soup was produced on July 1, 2021.
The following products are subject to recall:
- 16-oz. – Plastic containers of “Panera BREAD at HOME Chicken Tortilla Soup” with lot code 070121-1V and “Use By 09/09/2021” on the label.
The products subject to recall bear establishment number “P-13130” inside the USDA mark of inspection.
The problem was discovered after the company notified FSIS that they received several consumer complaints reporting pieces of gray nitrile glove in the product.
There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to the consumption of these products.
According to officials, no of the products have been immediately found to affect NJ or the Tri-State area at this time.
Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.
FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers’ refrigerators. 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.
FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify that recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and take steps to make sure that the product is no longer available to consumers.
