Westlake Foods of California is recalling about 47,419 pounds of cured pork products because of misbranding and an undeclared allergen, wheat. There have been no reports of adverse reactions due to the consumption of these products.
The recalled products are 11 to 13 pound cases of “Tay Ho Cured Pork Artificially Colored”, distributed for institutional use nationwide. Also recalled are 14-ounce packages of “Tay Ho Cured Pork Sausage with Pork Ears and Snouts”, distributed for retail sales nationwide. Finally, 11 to 13 pound cases of “Don Café Cured Pork Meat and Binder Product Pork skin added” is recalled, distributed for institutional use in the Houston, Texas area.
