- 15-pound. plastic-lined boxes containing “GHANAIANWAY AFRICAN FOODS SALTED LAMB (KOOBI).”

The affected products have a 1-year shelf life and were shipped to restaurant and retail locations in Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.
The problem was discovered during routine FSIS retail surveillance activities. There have been no confirmed reports of illness due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider.
