FSIS Issues Public Health Alert for Wegman’s Frozen Chicken Korma with Basmati Turmeric
The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is issuing a public health alert for frozen chicken products due to misbranding and an undeclared allergen. The product contains cashews, a known allergen, which is not declared on the product label. FSIS is issuing this public health alert to ensure that consumers with allergies to cashews are aware that these products should not be consumed. A recall was not requested because FSIS believes the products are no longer available for consumers purchase.

The product was sold in 10-oz. containers of “Wegmans Chicken Korma with Basmati Turmeric Rice” with a best by date of Nov. 8, 2023 and was produced on Nov. 8, 2022.
