Recall Issued for Breakfast Product Due to Plastic Pieces That Could Cause Tooth Damage – 34,000 Units Sold

Authorities have removed a frozen breakfast product from sale due to concerns that it may contain sharp plastic fragments that pose a risk of dental injuries or choking.

Roughly 34,801 cases were sold before the contamination was identified.

Officials fear that embedded plastic pieces as large as 8 mm could be lurking in Lamb Weston’s frozen hashbrowns patties.

Vulnerable groups such as babies, seniors, and individuals recovering from surgeries are particularly at risk of facing significant health problems if they ingest the affected breakfast item unintentionally.

The item in question was manufactured by Lamb Weston Inc., a company located in Richland, Washington, approximately two hours away from Spokane, and distributed nationwide across the United States.

The company voluntarily launched the recall on April 19, 2025, and it remains active, the Food and Drug Administration confirmed.

It’s categorized as a Class II recall, meaning the product may cause temporary or reversible health effects, with a low chance of severe injury.

The company discovered the contamination, but details on how the plastic entered the food have not been made public.

No press release was issued by Lamb Weston about the issue.

The recall includes four separate product lines of Lamb Weston Hashbrown Patties.

One of them, Item M7204, saw 7,929 cases pulled while another one, item M0053 made up the bulk of the recall with 21,004 cases flagged.

Another line, item M7414, accounted for 2,079 recalled cases and item M7422 added 3,789 cases to the recall.

All of the recalled items had use-by dates from August to early next year, so consumers are urged to check their freezers.

Shipments went out to Arizona and Hawaii, as well as internationally to Japan, Kuwait, Taiwan, and the United Arab Emirates.

No reports of injuries or illnesses have been linked to the product so far.

All four recalled items came in 6/3.5LB bag cases and were made in the US.

FDA recall numbers for the affected products range from F-0752-2025 through F-0755-2025.

Consumers can return their patties for a refund.

Anyone who may have eaten the affected hashbrowns and is feeling unwell should seek immediate medical care.

Lamb Weston didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment by The U.S. Sun.

Another snack sold in eight different states has been recalled after lead was found inside.

And bread with a life-threatening ingredient was recently pulled from shelves.
