TOKYO, May 9 (NNN-NHK) – Japanese bread manufacturer, Pasco Shikishima Corp. yesterday voluntarily recalled about 104,000 packets, from its Chojuku bread brand, after mouse body parts were found in two packages made in the same production line, said the company.
The recall involved Chojuku Yamagata 5 Slices and Chojuku Yamagata 6 Slices, produced at Pasco Tokyo Tama Factory, with best-by dates between May 7 and May 11, the Nagoya-based bread-maker said.
