Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Simmons Prepared Foods, Inc. is recalling approximately 5,850 pounds of frozen, heat treated, not ready-to-eat chicken tenderloin fritters. These products were breaded using flour that was previously recalled by General Mills due to potential contamination with E. coli O121. The affected products were distributed for institutional use in Arkansas and are packaged in 30-pound cases. No illnesses have been reported in connection with this recall.

Risk

The chicken may be contaminated with E. coli O121, which causes diarrhea (often bloody) and vomiting. In rare cases, infection can lead to hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a type of kidney failure that is most common in young children, older adults, and individuals with weakened immune systems.
