ConAgra Foods is expanding a voluntary recall of P.F. Chang's Home Menu Brand products due to the potential presence of small metal fragments (2-9 mm) in the sugar used in the sauce. The voluntary action is being undertaken because of affected sugar from a supplier.

An initial recall on 3,806 lb. of chicken and beef was issued July 7 after a ConAgra employee observed metal fragments while dispensing sugar from a supplier for a P.F. Chang's Home Menu Brand sauce ingredient. ConAgra was notified July 14 by the supplier of additional production lots of sugar that were affected such that the initial recall needed to be expanded by an additional 191,791 lb. in order to include additional P.F. Chang's Home Menu Brand meals.

“Foodborne foreign objects that are not hard and sharp and less than or equal to 7 mm in length may cause minor injuries such as temporary reflexive choking and irritation of the gastrointestinal system,” ConAgra said, but noted, “There have been no reports of adverse reactions or injuries due to consumption of these products to date.”

Products covered by this recall were distributed in the U.S. Specific product names and information are listed on the company’s website. All of the recalled frozen food is in a 22 oz. plastic bag.

“No other ConAgra Foods are impacted by this recall, and these products are not served in P.F. Chang's restaurants. Meals in P.F. Chang's restaurants are made fresh every day and in every restaurant,” the company said.
