Loaded Tex-Mex Tater Tots Recipe
Federal health authorities have expanded a recall of frozen tater tots due to potential contamination with hard plastic fragments.
The recall now covers over 21,600 30-pound cases, amounting to approximately 648,000 pounds of product.
Produced by McCain Foods in Idaho, the affected tater tots, including Ore-Ida and Sonic Tots, were mainly distributed in bulk to food service clients across 28 U.S. states, not retail stores.
Although no injuries have been confirmed, officials warn that even small plastic fragments can cause choking or mouth and throat injuries if consumed.
Customers with concerns about their products can find more information on the FDA's recall page or contact McCain Foods customer service for guidance on refunds or disposal.
