Tyson Recalls Chicken Nuggets

Tyson Foods has voluntarily recalled more than 132,000 pounds of chicken nuggets after receiving reports that "hard, white plastic" was found in some nuggets.  The Arkansas-based company said Tuesday that the five-pound bags of fully cooked panko chicken nuggets were sold at Costco stores nationwide.

Tyson said "a small number" of consumers contacted the company after finding small pieces of plastic in the chicken. Company officials added they issued the recall "out of an abundance of caution".

No injuries have been reported.
