Briefly

Perdue is recalling over 160,000 pounds of frozen breaded chicken products after thin metal wires were discovered inside packages. The recall includes chicken nuggets, tenders, and breasts, with no known illnesses linked to the contamination. Jeff Shaw, the senior VP of food safety, stated the recall was made "out of an abundance of caution" to protect consumers, emphasizing the food safety standards in place.
