The products subject to recall bear Canadian establishment number 566 printed inside the Canadian inspection mark on the label. These items were shipped to retail locations and restaurants in Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.
The lack of U.S. inspection was discovered when the firm notified FSIS that the product was not presented for FSIS import reinspection.
There have been no confirmed reports of illness or adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an illness or reaction should contact a healthcare provider.
FSIS is concerned that some products may be in consumer and restaurant freezers. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. Restaurants are urged not to serve these products. The products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify that recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to ensure the product is no longer available to consumers. When available, the retail distribution list(s) will be posted on the FSIS website at www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls.
