More than two million pounds of chicken products were recalled in eight states due to concerns the items may be contaminated, officials said Wednesday.

Simmons Prepared Foods took the action with poultry items produced between Oct. 21 and Nov. 4 over fears that the products have been exposed to foreign matter such as metal, according to the US Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service.

The Arkansas-based company identified the potential safety hazard involving 2,071,397 pounds of poultry during further processing, officials said.

Consumers should look out for products with the establishment number “P-1949,” “P- 486” or “P-5837” inside the USDA mark of inspection, the department said.

The recalled products were shipped to Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Georgia, Minnesota, Oklahoma and Pennsylvania.

“There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products,” an FSIS spokesperson said. “Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.”
