Canadian frozen food brand McCain has issued a recall for one of its tater tot products due to pieces of plastic, Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) said in a notice. The recalled product, McCain Tasti Taters brand Crispy Potato Bites, were distributed nationally in 800 gram and 1.8-kilogram sizes. The CFIA has categorized it as a Class II recall, meaning there is a moderate risk that consuming the food may lead to short-term or non-life-threatening health problems. The CFIA says McCain alerted the government agency of the recall. It is unclear how many units were sold, or how many people might have been affected by the recall. Affected lots for the 800-g size include those with the Universal Product Code (UPC) 0 55773 00079 5 (codes F250226; 1005286322) and UPC 0 55773 00306 2 (codes F250226; 1005286328) for the 1.8-kg size. “Do not use, sell, serve or distribute the affected products,” the recall states.
