Wayne Farms Recalls BBQ Chicken Wing Products Due To Misbranding & Undeclared Allergen

Wayne Farms, a Decatur, Ala., establishment is recalling approximately 2,320 pounds of frozen honey barbeque chicken wing products because of misbranding and an undeclared allergen, egg, that is not declared on the label.

The products subject to recall include:

  • 4-lb. bags of "GFS® Honey BBQ Flavored Chicken Wings" packed in 16-lb. cases

The cases bear the establishment number "P-33885" inside the USDA mark of inspection and a case code of 572160. The bags bear a production date of "11/28/12" above "p#33885" inkjetted on the package. The products were produced Nov. 28, 2012 and were shipped to a foodservice distribution center in Kentucky for distribution at the retail level in Indiana, Kentucky and Tennessee. When available, the retail distribution list(s) will be posted on FSIS' website at www.fsis.usda.gov/

.

The problem was discovered when a customer attempted to scan the product into inventory and was unable to. The product being recalled was produced with eggs and packaged in bags for product formulated without eggs. FSIS and the company have received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider.

FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers.

Consumers and media with questions about the recall should contact the company's Director of Marketing and Communication, Alan Sterling, at (678) 450-3092.
