000338 Georgia Chicken Product Recalled

March 18, 2000

Washington - A Georgia company is recalling 18,600 pounds of chicken breast fritters that may have been sold in packages that don't disclose that the product contains eggs, which cause allergies in some people.

The product was packaged for institutional use and was not sold in stores.

The chicken product was sold by Zartic Inc. of Rome, Ga., to distributors in 13 states: Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Texas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Kansas, Florida, Oklahoma, Arizona, Ohio, North Carolina and Pennsylvania, according to the Agriculture Department's Food Safety and Inspection Service.

Each of the 18-pound cases in which it was sold has a code of “63014” on the label, and “P-703” appears inside the USDA seal of inspection.
