WASHINGTON — Foster Farms initiated a voluntary recall for approximately 3,843,040 pounds of chicken corn dog and ground turkey on a stick products that may be contaminated with extraneous material, specifically pieces of wood embedded in the batter, the USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service announced over the weekend.
The affected products were produced between July 30, 2024, through Aug. 4, 2025, and they have the establishment number “P-6137B” either inside the USDA mark of inspection or printed on the packaging. More than 15 products were affected.
The products subject to recall were shipped to retail and institutional locations nationwide, including Department of Defense and USDA Commodity Food donations. While the products were distributed to schools, it resulted from commercial sales and not part of food provided by the USDA for the National School Lunch Program, FSIS noted.
The possible contamination was discovered after FSIS received a complaint from a consumer involving an injury from consumption of these products. Also, Foster Farms received numerous complaints from consumers, five of which involved injuries.
FSIS is concerned that some products may be in consumers’ fridges and freezers, along with institution fridges and freezers. These products should not be consumed, and anyone who has them should throw them out or return to the place of purchase.
Foster Farms said that this recall was put in place to maintain the highest standards of product quality and consumer safety, in a company statement.
