The firm operates under the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA); however, the products subject to recall contain meat and poultry amounts that are amenable to FSIS. The problem was discovered by FSIS during a review of products at a different federal plant. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider. (To sign up for a free subscription to Food Safety News, click here.)
