WASHINGTON — (WDNews) — Foster Poultry Farms, LLC is recalling about 3.96 million pounds of chicken corn dog products after reports of wood pieces embedded in the batter, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced Oct. 4, 2025.
FSIS says the recalled items were produced July 30, 2024, through Aug. 4, 2025, and carry establishment number “P-6137B” inside the USDA mark of inspection or printed on the package. The products shipped to retail and institutional locations nationwide, including the Department of Defense and USDA Commodity Foods donations. Officials note some products reached schools through normal commercial sales, not via the National School Lunch Program.
The recall expanded twice. On Oct. 6, FSIS said ground turkey on a stick items are also included. On Oct. 17, the agency added about 118,098 pounds of “Whole Grain Chicken Corn Dog — Whole Grain Batter Wrapped Chicken Franks on a Stick Lower Fat” with a use-by date of Aug. 7, 2026.
The issue surfaced after a consumer injury complaint to FSIS. The company also received multiple complaints, five involving injuries. Anyone concerned about a possible injury should contact a healthcare provider.
FSIS urges consumers and institutions to check refrigerators and freezers. Do not eat the affected products; throw them away or return them to the place of purchase. FSIS will post retail distribution details on its website as they become available.
