Recall of limited quantity of Lean Cuisine and Stouffer’s Chicken Lasagna

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced a recall of some Lean Cuisine and STOUFFER’S frozen meals due to the potential presence of a wood-like material. Nestle USA initiated the voluntary recall of the frozen meals on March 17.
