WASHINGTON, May 1, 2013 – Real Pasta Inc., a North Bergen, N.J., establishment is recalling approximately 25,000 pounds of assorted pasta products that were processed without benefit of inspection.

The products subject to recall were labeled under the following brand names:

  • Angelina Foodservice
  • Deer Park Ravioli
  • K-Bella
  • La Gustosa Ravioli
  • NY Ravioli and Pasta

The products subject to recall were packaged on various dates since November 14, 2012, then shipped into commerce bearing one of the following establishment numbers: Est. 21479, P-21479, Est. 4702, or P-4702, Est. 1835, or P-1835. Wholesale and retail outlets can identify bulk pack product by the following Julian codes: 12318 through 12366, and 13001 through 13121.
