A 3 to 4 cm piece of vinyl was found in a Chicken McNugget sold at a
McDonald's outlet in Aomori, northern Japan at the weekend. In
response, McDonald's halted sales of nuggets made at a Thai plant on
the same day that the contaminated nugget was produced, the company
has said.
Last summer, McDonald's Japan switched its sourcing of nuggets to
three plants in Thailand following a food safety scandal at the
Chinese supplier of chicken for its McNuggets.
