Pilgrim’s is largely expanding a recall of poultry products it first issued on April 7 after products processed at a facility in Waco, Texas, were found to have extraneous materials in them.

The initial recall, about 40,780 pounds of chicken nugget products were recalled because the company felt they might be contaminated with extraneous plastic materials. But on April 26, Pilgrim’s expanded its recall to include additional products and dates in which those products were produced. The updated recall involves close to 4.6 million pounds of products.

The company also stated that in addition to plastic, the affected products could also be contaminated with extraneous materials such as wood, rubber and metal.

To date, there have been no reports of people experiencing adverse health effects as a result of consuming these products.
