Sunrise Poultry Processors, a Lethbridge chicken processor, has voluntarily recalled 2,705 pounds of poultry products that were not inspected at the U.S. border.
There have been no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of the chicken, according to information from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
However, the USDA issued a Class 1 recall notice, which is associated with potentially serious health hazards from consumption.
“Without the benefit of full inspection, a possibility of adverse health consequences exists,” the USDA said.
The products at issue were prepared Feb. 2. They include bulk cases of thighs, boneless thighs, boneless chicken breasts and whole fryers.
They were shipped to retail locations in Washington state, arriving on or about Feb. 4.
