Reports of small chunks of blue plastic in Lean Cuisine brand frozen chicken dinners have led Nestle Prepared Foods Co. to recall 900,000 pounds worth of meals.
Nestlé Prepared Foods Company has recalled three brands of frozen LEAN CUISINE dinners found to have hard plastic blue chunks in the meal.
The frozen dinners were distributed nationwide, and at least one person has reported an injury, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service. No other details of the reported injury have been released by the USDA.
However, Roz O'Hearn, spokeswoman for the Nestle Prepared Foods, told ABCNews.com in an e-mail that "there have been no reports of any injuries requiring medical attention."
So far, the blue plastic has been found in three specific Lean Cuisine dinners -- Cafe Classics Pesto Chicken with Bow Tie Pasta, Spa Cuisine Chicken Mediterranean and Dinnertime Selects Chicken Tuscan. O'Hearn said the company has received seven consumer complaints, "with one report that a consumer bit into it."
The USDA considered the blue plastic a potential health threat and has ranked the recall as Class I -- a "health hazard situation where there is a reasonable probability that the use of the product will cause serious, adverse health consequences or death."

Lean Cuisine? You mean people actually eat those things?
they're pretty darn good. Not the recalled ones, but the Sesame Chicken one is top notch (minus plastic of course).
I eat Banquett's since they are a dollar, and the chicken is good.
I vaguely remember having one of these things at a friend's house at some point in the mid-80s. It was rubbery chicken and some kind of green vegetable that I think committed suicide rather than live on to ripeness once it knew its destiny. From your comment I'll assume the quality has improved ;-)
I'm not big on frozen meals, but from time to time I snag a Bertolli pasta meal in a bag. They're nummy.
I won't disagree on that one!
But if you haven't had a lean cuisine since the 80s you're missing out.
My understanding is that blue plastic chunks are very low in calories!
90 percent of this forum is from San Antonio, the 3rd fattest city in all America perhaps the world. I don't think they even know what a Lean Cuisine is.

Problem w/ Lean Cuisine is that I need 5 of them to be full.
Good thing I prefer Smart Ones for Lunch...
or you know how to cook.I won't disagree on that one!
But if you haven't had a lean cuisine since the 80s you're missing out.
Or I eat them for lunch instead of eating out.
I eat those Lean Cuisines a lot because although I love to cook, I don't bother just for me.
Great, now do us all a favor and grab a box, put it in front of your face, take a picture, and change your avatar.
Lean Cuisine = hugely icky.
I didn't even have to check since I KNOW we don't have that in our freezer.
Yuck.
Banquet Salsbury Steak is the best TV dinner
nice
Having just read the 1600-year-old joke book thread, I can't resist...
I tried to check my fridge, but it was running. Gotta go catch it...
