Import Violation
Product Description & Identification
WASHINGTON, March 20, 2015 Boa Vida Imports, a New Bedford, Mass., establishment, is recalling approximately 385 pounds of pork and beef products imported from Portugal because this country is not eligible to export meat products to the United States, the U.S. Department of Agricultures Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. These products were also not presented at the U.S. point of entry for inspection. Without the benefit of full inspection, including determining the equivalence of a foreign food regulatory system, a possibility of adverse health consequences exists. The pork meat and beef tripe stew with beans items were produced on various dates between July and October 2014. The following products are subject to recall: [ View Labels (pdf only)] 1-lb. cans of NOBRE Receitas Caseiras CHISPALHADA with a use or sell by date of 10/21/2016 on the can. 1-lb. cans of NOBRE Receitas Caseiras DOBRADA COM FEIJAO BRANCA with a use or sell by date of 09/23/2016 on the can. 1-lb. cans of NOBRE Receitas Caseiras FEIJOADA A TRANSMOTANA with a use or sell by date of 07/10/2016 on the can. The products subject to recall bear the establishment number PT RTR 79 CE inside the Portugal mark of inspection. These products were shipped to retail locations in Southeastern Massachusetts. The problem was discovered when Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) contacted a FSIS Office of Investigation, Enforcement, and Audit (OIEA) Investigator on the suspicion that these products were imported from a country (Portugal) not currently eligible for import. 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. When available, the retail distribution list(s) will be posted on the FSIS website at www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls . Consumers and media with questions about the recall can contact Antonio Coutinho, Owner of Boa Vida Imports, at (744) 206-1625. Consumers with food safety questions can "Ask Karen," the FSIS virtual representative available 24 hours a day at AskKaren.gov or via smartphone at m.askkaren.gov .
