Ukrop's recalls spaghetti, chicken cobbler over metal fears
Key Points:
- Nearly 23,000 pounds of Ukrop’s Homestyle Foods baked spaghetti and chicken cobbler products are being recalled due to potential contamination with metal slivers, according to the USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).
- The recalled items were sold in Virginia, North Carolina, West Virginia, Department of War commissaries, and online, with manufacturing dates between July 1 and July 29, 2026.
- The recall was initiated after a consumer complaint reported finding a metal piece in a fully cooked product; no injuries have been confirmed to date.
- Affected products include various sizes of baked spaghetti and chicken cobbler with “best by” dates from July 8 through August 5, and consumers are advised to discard or return the items for a refund.
- This recall follows a similar incident in June when Rich Products Corp. recalled over 160,000 pounds of Farm Rich Pizza Cheese Crunchers due to possible metal contamination.
