Bad news for lovers of minced meat in the shape of oblong ovals.

Tyson Foods has recalled more than 75,000 pounds of fully cooked, frozen chicken nuggets that may be contaminated with pieces of plastic.

The Tyson products being recalled are bags labeled with “Establishment Number P-13556.” Included in the recall:

5-lb. bags of “Tyson Fully Cooked White Meat Chicken Nuggets – 16142-928” with a “Best if Used By” date of “Jan 26 2015″ or Feb 16 2015.” The manufacturer codes “0264SDL0315 through 19” and “0474SDL0311 through 14” can also be found on the bags. These products were produced Jan. 26, 2014 or Feb. 16, 2014 and shipped nationwide to one retail warehouse club chain.

20-lb. bulk packs of “Spare Time Fully Cooked Nugget-Shaped Chicken Breast Pattie Fritters w/Rib Meat – 16142-861” with identifying case codes of “0264SDL0315 through 19” and “0474SDL0311 through 14.” These products were produced Jan. 26 and Feb. 16, 2014 and were shipped for institutional use in Indiana and Arkansas.

The recall was announced by the U.S. Department of Agriculture on Friday after consumers complained about the plastic-filled nuggets. But something tells us there are things a lot worse than plastic bits in anything as processed as chicken shaped into breaded nuggets.

Just saying.

Consumers with questions about the recall are asked to contact Tyson Foods Consumer Services at 1-866-328-3156.
