Trader Joe's Chile Lime Chicken Burgers Recalled Due to Possible Bone Fragments
Consumer Reports ^ | November 12, 2021 | Lisa L. Gill

Posted on 11/13/2021 1:34:08 PM PST by BenLurkin

The burgers were produced from Aug. 16 to Sept. 29, 2021. Trader Joe’s says the burgers have been removed from stores and are no longer for sale. However, consumers who bought these burgers, which are packaged in 1-pound boxes, and still have them in their freezer should check to see whether they’re part of the recall.

The lot code to look for on the box is 2281, 2291, 2311, 2351, 2361, 2371, 2441, 2511, 2521, 2531, 2561, 2591, 2601, 2671, or 2721. In addition, the packages will have “EST. P-8276” printed near the USDA mark of inspection.

Found a small bone chip or two in some hamburgers, nothing dramatic. Happens.

Perdue sells breaded chicken patties. They are clean, non-greasy and delicious. No antibiotics and all breast meat. You can make your own Chick-fil-A sandwich at home. Don’t buy them grease laden chicken nuggets.

Different problem can occur with chicken.

Chicken bones are prone to splintering which can result in puncture wounds in the mouth.

TJ’s frozen Butter Chicken with Rice is killer. Hopefully never literally due to bone fragments!

Right -also reason why you don’t give chicken bones to any pet.

You do find those in ground turkey and chicken sometimes. Good for Trader Joe’s taking it seriously.

Depends on where the bone chips come from.

Does that mean that the USDA inspected the meat and sent it along its merry way. just like an illegal at the border to who tests positive for COVID? Makes you wonder what's the point of the USDA.
