Costco Issues Warning on Popular Chicken Product

Costco has issued a health alert for a shelf-stable chicken chili product that may not have gone through the proper safety inspection.

The alert was shared in a letter to Costco members and published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).

The item in question is the Allen Family Foods White Chicken Chili, sold in 7-pound, eight-count boxes.
