The recalled cans of Wild Planet Organic Roasted Chicken Breast were produced on January 16, 2016.

The product's label will read “Wild Planet Organic Roasted Chicken Breast – 100% Chicken Breast & Sea Salt – No Liquids Added” with a Best Buy Date of 01/16/18.

These items were shipped to multiple distributors for further distribution to retail stores.
