The recall affects 2,094,186 pounds of P.F. Chang's Home Menu Chicken Pad Thai and Chicken Fried Rice. The items may contain milk, a known allergen that's not declared on the product labels.
"The products are ... described as frozen, heat treated, not fully cooked and not shelf stable," the USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service said Saturday. They were produced between Oct. 1 and April 11, 2019, with "Best By" dates of Sept. 26, 2019 through April 5, 2020.
The products were distributed to retailers nationwide and health officials are urging consumers who have them in their freezers to throw them away or return them to their place of purchase.
"There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products," the USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service said.
"The problem was discovered when Conagra Brands, Inc. conducted a routine label verification check and determined that the product did not declare milk on the label."
The recall does not include products sold at PF Chang's restaurants.
The recall now affects more than 11.8 million pounds of frozen, ready-to-eat chicken strip products that were shipped nationwide, up from more than 69,000 pounds when the recall initially was issued in March.
The expansion comes after three of six people who complained about finding pieces of metal in certain Tyson products also said they suffered an injury in their mouth, the agency said.
The products now being recalled were produced from October through March 8, and they have "use by" dates of October 1, 2019, through March 7, 2020.
A Tyson Foods official said Friday that the company is taking corrective steps at the location where the products are made.

Tyson Foods, Inc. has greatly expanded the recall of its frozen, ready-to-eat chicken strip products because they may contain “pieces of metal.”
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) on Saturday announced the news, noting in a statement the expansion adds to Tyson’s recall in March. At the time, the company called back 69,000 pounds of chicken strips.
The affected items were produced from Oct. 1, 2018, through March 8 and have “Use By Dates” of Oct. 1, 2019, through March 7, 2020, per the FSIS. The chicken products were shipped to retailers nationwide.

“The problem was discovered when FSIS received two consumer complaints of extraneous material in the chicken strip products. FSIS is now aware of six complaints during this time frame involving similar pieces of metal with three alleging oral injury,” the federal agency said, adding there are concerns the affected products still may be in some consumers’ freezers.
Consumers are instructed to discard or return affected products to the place of purchase for a refund.
The expanded recall comes after the company earlier this year pulled more than 36,000 pounds of chicken nuggets after receiving complaints about rubber material in their product.
Uber and Lyft drivers in major U.S. cities have united to strike during peak hours on Wednesday May 8th for two hours from 7AM to 9AM local time, according to a report from Autoblog. Cities which may see rush hour even more rush-y include New York, San Francisco, Chicago, and Los Angeles, among others. The strike is a protest of business and payment practices ahead of Uber’s planned IPO on May 9th with trading on the stock exchange to begin the following day.
The New York Taxi Workers Alliance website features a post about the strike which lays out the plans of the strikers. The protest is an effort to influence Uber and Lyft to provide a more secure work environment and ensure that drivers can actually make a living on the income paid. Uber has already acknowledged that shifting drivers from independent contractors to full employees would be bad for its business model.
Even presidential candidates are weighing in on the strike.
Following the strike, drivers plan to rally at Uber and Lyft respective headquarters from 1PM the same day.
From the NYTWA post:
“With the IPO, Uber’s corporate owners are set to make billions, all while drivers are left in poverty and to go bankrupt.”

Tesla CEO Elon Musk departs US Federal Court following a hearing in a lawsuit brought against him by the United States Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) for actions related to Musk's social media usage.
Tesla emailed its employees on Thursday to caution them against leaking company information, especially to the press.
The email, which was leaked to the press, ostensibly pits Tesla and its employees against "outsiders" and those who will "do anything to see us fail."
"As a result of our success, we will continue to see an interest from people who will do anything to see us fail," the Tesla email reads. "This includes people who are actively seeking proprietary information for their own gain, targeting Tesla employees through personal networks or on social networks like LinkedIn, Facebook or Twitter."
In the past, information leaks have not led to the kindest press for Tesla, including exposure of product issues and tenuous business relationships. The email details almost half a dozen examples of recent confidentiality breaches and the actions Tesla took against those employees.
"Tesla will take action against those who improperly leak proprietary business information or violate the non-disclosure obligations to which we all agreed," it continues. "This includes termination of employment, claims for damages, and even criminal charges."
It goes on to invoke employees' confidentiality agreements and to offer resources for those who "may benefit from training or a more complete understanding of how to protect our intellectual property and confidential business information."
