86 tons of Boston Market frozen meals have been recalled because they may be contaminated with glass or plastic

About 86 tons worth of Boston Market's boneless pork rib patties were recalled because they may be contaminated with pieces of glass or hard plastic.

The patties, distributed by Ohio-based food manufacturer Bellisio Foods, are included in Boston Market Home Style Meals labeled as Boneless Pork Rib Shaped Patty with BBQ Sauce & Mashed Potatoes, according toThe USDA classifies this as a Class I recall, meaning that"there is a reasonable probability that the use of the product will cause serious, adverse health consequences or death.

The affected meals were shipped to retail locations nationwide as well as to a Department of Defense facility in Tucson, Arizona."The problem was discovered when the establishment received consumer complaints of glass or hard plastic extraneous material in the rib shaped patty," the USDA said in its statement. The agriculture department's food inspection service was notified of this issue on Friday.

"There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions or injuries due to consumption of these products," the USDA said."Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider." Consumers who have bought these frozen meals are urged not to eat them. They should be either thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.

Wow glass OR plastic IN the food? Someone needs to visit their factories since something is severely wrong here. I purchased a Chicken fried steak dinner, which comes with, you guessed it chicken fried steak! All I got was mashed potatoes & gravy. Unacceptable bostonmarketfrozen

^me eating bostonmarket tonight getting ready for my lawsuit

mmmm plastic boneless pork ribs sprinkled with glass

Nahhh 😳😳😱😳

I'd have thought it more likely they were recalled due to containing flavor or seasoning.

But roughage is good for the digestive system?!

Eco-friendly packaging?

Those things are nasty anyway

Between this and chlorinated chicken, I can't wait for Brexit

Who is buying this crap, anyway?

Thanks Unions.

At least they look uncontaminated by meat.

Mom! can we have shaped patty for dinner? said no one ever.

How do you make “boneless” ribs without plastic or glass? Seems it would be an essential ingredient.

Sales are down, Publicity Stunt BusinessMgmt

😂😂😂😂happy I don’t eat that stuff!

Probably a step up from it's normal ingredients

looks like there is gonna be a different kind of Boston tea party its gonna suck for all the plastic they leave in the ocean though

But I loved their new 'crunchy-style' mashed potatoes!

Plastic materials such as polyethylene and polypropylene increase the risk of cancer

This food is terrorism

Jokes on them.
