Food safety recall round-up 13-19 January 2017
Pork distributed without inspection
Canada: Olymel S.E.C./ L.P. is recalling more than 1,100 pounds of pork ribs because they were repacked and distributed without the federal inspection.
Pork ribs items were repacked and produced from January 10 to 13, said the US Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (USDA-FSIS).
The 10-lb and 30-lb cardboard box of pork rib tips with a packaging date of January 10-13, 2017 were shipped to restaurants in Michigan.
The problem was discovered by FSIS while doing routine failure to present monitoring. FSIS discovered a shipment of pork spare ribs entered the US from Canada on or about 8-1-17, crossing the border in Michigan. The products were then processed and repacked at a federal establishment and further distributed.
There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to the products.
