Wegmans recalls frozen chicken nuggets due to possible bone fragments
Wegmans is recalling frozen chicken nuggets in eight states and the District of Columbia because there may be bone fragments in the packages.
A public health alert was issued for frozen, fully cooked Wegmans breaded chicken breast nuggets by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service, with hopes of making sure customers are aware that they shouldn't eat them. A typical recall from the agency wasn't issued because the product is no longer for sale.
The alert covers 46 ounce plastic packages containing 'Wegmans Family Pack Fully Cooked Breaded Chicken Breast with Rib Meat' with a best if used by date of Aug. 26, 2025. That is located on the back of the packaging next to the barcode in the lower right corner. The product was produced on Aug. 26, 2024.
The nuggets were only made for Wegmans Food Markets and distributed in Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
The Food Safety and Inspection Service said that it was notified of the issue after Wegmans received multiple consumer complaints of bone fragments in the product.
There have been no confirmed reports of injury due to consumption.
The Food Safety and Inspection Service said that it is concerned that consumers may still have some of the nugget packages in their freezers. Consumers who still have packages are urged not to eat the product, and to throw it away or return it to the store where it was purchased.
Wegmans said that all packages can be returned for a full refund.
Customers can contact Wegmans Food Markets at 1-855-934-3663 Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 7:00 pm or Saturday and Sunday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm.

Urgent recall of 256,000 pounds of canned beef stew over fears they contain wood
Hundreds of thousands of pounds of canned beef stew have been recalled in the US because they may be contaminated with wooden fragments. Hormel Foods Corporation on Wednesday recalled 256,185 pounds of 20-ounce metal cans of its Dinty Moore beef stew that were distributed to stores nationwide. 'The problem was discovered after the establishment notified FSIS that they had received three consumer complaints reporting pieces of wood in the beef stew product,' stated an announcement from the Food Safety and Inspection Service, a government agency regulating public health. Affected cans were produced on February 4, 2025, and have the best by date of February 2028. They have the lot number T02045 printed on the can with possibly more numbers at the end, as well as the establishment number EST 199G. There have not been any reports of consumers falling ill from eating the stew. Customers who are worried about related sickness should contact their doctors. The FSIS, which is an arm of the United States Department of Agriculture, is telling customers to throw away the cans or return them. Customers with questions are encouraged to contact the company based in Tucker, Georgia. More Trending Hormel Foods Corporation did not immediately say which specific states received the cans. The company owns Skippy Foods LLC, which recalled thousands of pounds of its peanut butter in 2022 over fears that they had stainless steel fragments. It comes only a few weeks after Vietti Food Group recalled 4,515 cases of Yellowstone Brown Sugar Molasses Baked Beans because the labels did not list soy as part of the ingredients. The beef stew is not the only product that has been recalled recently over fears of containing foreign material. In late April, Upper Crust Bakery LP recalled more than 800 cases of its multigrain sourdough, ancient grains hoagie roll and whole grain multigrain breads after glass fragments were discovered on the top surface of some of the items.
