Descripción del Producto e Identificación
TranslatedWASHINGTON, May 16, 2015 A.S.K. Foods Inc., a Palmyra, Penn. establishment, is recalling approximately 414 pounds of ground stuffing product due to misbranding and an undeclared allergen, the U.S. Department of Agricultures Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. The product contains soy lecithin, a known allergen which is not declared on the product label. The following product is subject to recall: 3-pound plastic tubs of Wegmans Herb Stuffing, With Pork and Veal, with plant EST. 9551 printed on the label. This item was produced on May 5, 8, and 12 of 2015. The product bears the establishment number EST. 9551 inside the USDA mark of inspection. This item was shipped to Wegmans Grocery stores for in-store Meat Department sales in Pennsylvania. The problem was discovered when an FSIS inspector performing routine labeling verification noticed that the bread crumb ingredient contained soy lecithin as a processing aid. FSIS and the company have received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider. FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers.
