Lean Cuisine's 900,000 Chicken Recall

I just saw that there's a recall on a whole ton (actually, 450 tons) of Lean Cuisine frozen dinners because pieces of blue plastic have found their way into the food.

"So far, the blue plastic has been found in three specific Lean Cuisine dinners -- Cafe Classics Pesto Chicken with Bow Tie Pasta, Spa Cuisine Chicken Mediterranean and Dinnertime Selects Chicken Tuscan."




Not that I've really been a fan of all frozen dinners (hurray convenience, boo sodium and nutrient profile), but this is a pretty big SNAFU.

So, if you know anyone who still relies on these frozen foodstuffs instead of doing some big batch cooking each week (discussed in Point #3 here), be sure to let them know to check the production codes on the side of the package.
