The problem was discovered by FSIS personnel conducting a routine food safety assessment of the company’s products. The establishment produces their own in-house labels.
FSIS and the company have received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.
