“Perdue Chicken Products Recall: Undeclared Egg Allergen in Fritters.” GovInfoNow, updated October 7, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/1275793-perdue-chicken-products-recall-undeclared-egg-allergen-in-fritters.

The chicken products contain egg whites, a known allergen, but the product label does not list this allergen. This means individuals with egg allergies could unknowingly consume the product and experience an allergic reaction.

People with egg allergies are most at risk from consuming these products. Anyone who purchased the recalled chicken fritters should avoid them.
