Nestle recalls Lean Cuisine spaghetti because of plastic in packages

Nestle Prepared Foods is recalling more than 10,000 packages of Lean Cuisine spaghetti with meatballs, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said Monday.

Customers in Wisconsin, South Dakota and Minnesota reported finding hard bits of plastic in the packages, the agency said. The products were packaged Oct. 10, 2010, and shipped to several states east of the Rocky Mountains.

The packages bear the establishment number “P-7991” and the case code “0298595519P” and a best before date of November 2011 printed on the side of the package, underneath the ingredient listing.
