SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO — The state Department of Public Health is investigating an incident at a food supplier kitchen that left glass fragments in a batch of chicken noodle soup. The soup went to several customers of FoodService Partners Inc., including Kaiser Permanente hospitals in Northern California.
Kaiser said four of its patients reported finding glass in their soup Feb. 10. No one reported feeling any ill effects.
FoodService Partners said the glass came from a container that broke during the soup preparation. The Maryland-based company said the cook tried to just clean out the kettle rather than reporting the incident and dumping out the soup.
It said the cook has been suspended and will be retrained.
FoodService Partners has notified all its customers that received the soup, but it declined to identify them.
