Parents checking their freezers should look closely at their Wegmans chicken nuggets. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has issued a public health alert after finding bone fragments in some packages.

The FSIS reports multiple consumer complaints about bone pieces found in Wegmans FAMILY PACK FULLY COOKED Breaded Chicken Breast nuggets.

The affected packages are easy to spot: look for the 46-ounce size with “best if used by 08/26/25” printed near the barcode. Each package also shows “P-33944” inside the USDA inspection mark.

Nine states received these shipments: Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. Though stores no longer sell these nuggets, many families likely have them stored in their freezers.

According to FSIS: “Consumers who have purchased this product are urged not to consume it. This product should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.” The company has set up a special customer service line at 1-855-934-3663, operating weekdays 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and weekends 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. ET.

While no injuries have been reported, bone fragments in food products can pose potential safety risks. The FSIS urges anyone with health concerns to contact their healthcare provider.

On January 11, Bestway Sandwiches Inc. recalled 25,000 pounds of chicken taquitos containing metal pieces. These incidents highlight ongoing food safety challenges in processed meat production.
