Tennessee’s Campos Foods recalls products because of misbranding and undeclared allergens

Items were produced on December 2, 2014

The United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced that Campos Foods out of Caryville, Tennessee is recalling about 5,300 pounds in chicken products because of misbranding and undeclared allergens that can be harmful.

The items, produced on December 2, 2014 and being recalled are:

  • Variously weighted bulk boxes of 90 pieces of “ROCKIN’ ROASTED ROASTED CHICKEN DRUM & THIGH (With Back) Smoke Flavour Added”.
  • 16-lb bulk boxes with around 32 pieces of “ROCKIN’ ROASTED ROASTED CHICKEN QUARTERS Smoke Flavour Added”.

The items will have “P-2260T” inside the USDA mark of inspection and were shipped nationwide.

The recall is being classified as Class 1, meaning “there is a reasonable probability that the use of the product will cause serious, adverse health consequences or death.”

The issue was first discovered when they were notified by a supplier that an ingredient was recalled by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA released the “Adams Flavors, Foods & Ingredients Issues Allergy Alert On Undeclared Peanut Protein In Cumin Products.”

Both FSIS and Campos Foods have no reported cases of illness.
