TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) - A Texas company is recalling more than 10,455 pounds of turkey and chicken meals due to mislabeling and an undeclared allergen, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service.

Perfect Fit Meals, LLC, out of Houston, TX, is voluntarily recalling the following products:

  • 10.4-oz. sealed tray packages with a label that says “Perfect Fit Meals Texas Chicken Ranch Casserole” with a use-by date of 4/24/2016, but may contain “Perfect Fit Meals Lemon Pepper Chicken.”
  • 11-oz sealed tray packages with a label that says “Perfect Fit Meals Chipotle Chicken Sausage” with a use-by date of 5/2/2016, but may contain “Perfect Fit Meals Turkey Enchilada.”, which may also contain milk, a known allergen that was not declared on the mislabeled product.

The products subject to recall bear establishment number "P-827" inside the USDA mark of inspection on the sealed tray packages. These items were shipped to retail locations nationwide.  The Turkey Enchilada items were produced on March 28, 2016. The Lemon Pepper Chicken items were produced on March 25, 2016.

According to the FSIS release the issue was found after a call from a retailer that products were incorrectly labeled. No illnesses or injuries have been reported due to this recall.

Those who may have bought the recalled products are urged not to consume them and should throw them away or return them to the store where purchased.

A complete list of retailers who sold the product will be available soon on the FSIS website at www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls.
