• UPC or barcode
• Best-by, use-by or expiration date
• Production or package code
• USDA establishment number beginning with “EST,” “P” or another inspection marking
• Store name and location
• Purchase date and price
• Receipt, when available
• Photographs of the food and packaging
• How the product was stored and prepared
• Whether anyone consumed the product, became ill or was injured

Tyson’s contact form may require the UPC and package details. Photograph every printed code before returning or discarding the product.

How to Report a Bad Tyson Product

Contact Tyson Consumer Relations when a product has:

• An unexpected taste, odor or appearance
• Excessive bone, cartilage, gristle or fat
• Tough, dry or poor-quality meat
• Missing pieces or incorrect contents
• A damaged bag, box, seal or tray
• Unexpected discoloration
• Cooking instructions that did not produce the expected result
• A foreign object or apparent contamination

1. Stop eating the product if it appears unsafe.
2. Keep the product and original packaging.
3. Photograph the condition, codes and establishment number.
4. Call 1-800-233-6332 or submit the Tyson contact form.
5. Request a case or complaint number.
6. Ask whether Tyson needs the product retained for examination.
7. Record the refund, coupon, replacement or investigation promised.

Thawed, Leaking or Damaged Tyson Products

Contact the retailer when the problem may involve:

• A malfunctioning store freezer or refrigerated case
• A grocery delivery that arrived warm
• A visibly torn or opened package
• A product sold after its printed date
• Improper store handling

Contact Tyson when an apparently intact package contains a manufacturing, sealing, labeling or product-quality problem. Both the retailer and Tyson may need to be notified when the cause is uncertain.

Foreign Objects, Bone Fragments and Contamination

Stop eating the product when you find glass, metal, hard plastic, stone, wood or another unexpected object. Bone fragments can occur in meat and poultry products, but a fragment that caused or could cause injury should still be reported.

Preserve:

• The foreign object
• The remaining product
• The original package
• The receipt
• Photographs of where the object was found
• The production and establishment codes

Refrigerate or freeze the remaining product when it can be retained safely. Do not mail the product or object unless Tyson or a government investigator provides specific written shipping instructions.

Report a Tyson Food-Safety Problem to the USDA

Tyson meat and poultry products are generally regulated by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service.

• USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline: 1-888-674-6854, also written as 1-888-MPHotline
• Hotline Hours: Monday-Friday, 10:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. Eastern Time, excluding most federal holidays
• Online Complaint Information: Report a Problem With Food

The USDA advises consumers to retain the original packaging, uneaten product and any foreign object. The establishment number and production code can help investigators identify where and when the food was processed.

Tyson Recall Information

A Tyson recall or public-health alert normally applies only to products matching specific details, including:

• Brand and product name
• Package size
• UPC
• Use-by or best-by date
• Production or lot code
• USDA establishment number
• Distribution area

A recall involving Jimmy Dean, Hillshire Farm, Ball Park or another Tyson Foods brand does not necessarily affect products labeled Tyson.

Check:

• USDA Recalls and Public Health Alerts
• Tyson Consumer Relations
• The retailer’s official recall page
• The package’s establishment number, code and date

Follow the specific recall instructions. Consumers may be directed to discard the product, return it to the retailer or contact Tyson.

Tyson Ingredients, Allergens and Nutrition

Ingredients and allergen statements vary among Tyson chicken, beef, pork, frozen, refrigerated and prepared products. Recipes can change over time.

Read the complete label before consuming the product. Contact Tyson when:

• The ingredient statement is unclear
• The allergen statement appears inconsistent
• The product inside does not match the package
• You need manufacturing or cross-contact information
• An online ingredient list differs from the current package
• You need clarification about preparation or storage instructions

The label on the product in your possession should take priority over an older website listing or previous purchase.

Tyson Cooking and Heating Questions

Follow the instructions printed on the exact product. Tyson notes that cooking and heating directions are provided on its packaging and product pages.

When reporting a cooking problem, provide:

• Whether the product was raw, fully cooked or ready to heat
• The cooking appliance and temperature
• Cooking time
• Whether the product was thawed
• The measured internal temperature, when available
• Whether all package directions were followed

Do not assume a breaded or browned product is fully cooked. Check the package labeling and follow its safe-handling directions.

Tyson Refunds and Replacement Coupons

Tyson may offer a coupon, reimbursement, replacement or another adjustment after reviewing a documented complaint. A particular remedy is not guaranteed.

The retailer may provide a faster refund when the product was recently purchased, visibly damaged, thawed in the store or affected by a grocery-delivery problem.

Keep records of:

• The Tyson case number
• The resolution promised
• The number or value of replacement coupons
• The date a refund or coupon was expected
• Any follow-up correspondence
