BREAKING! Tyson Foods recalls over 130k pounds of chicken nuggets after plastic contamination scare

(NaturalNews) The processed food giant Tyson Foods has just issued a massive recall on more than 130,000 pounds of their chicken nuggets, due to concerns that the products are "contaminated with hard plastic," NBC News is reporting. Doesn't that just sound delightful?

The recall is a Class I Recall – which indicates that there is a reasonable amount of concern for serious, adverse health effects or even death. According to the USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service's (FSIS) statement, the problem with the chicken went unnoticed by Tyson until the company started receiving complaints from customers. The report states, "According to Tyson Foods, the plastic material ranged in size from 21mm in length and 6.5mm in diameter and may have come from a round, hard plastic rod used to connect a plastic transfer belt. The firm said the products pass through a metal detector, but the plastic is not detectable to this technology."
