These items have the establishment number “EST. 40009” inside the USDA mark of inspection. They were shipped to retail locations in New York. The problem was discovered when the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets alerted USDA about meat and poultry products that were made without federal inspection.
FSIS thinks that some of these products could be in consumers’ home freezers. Please check your freezer carefully to see if you did purchase any. If you did, do not eat them. Throw them away after first double bagging them so other people and animals can’t access them, or take them back to the place of purchase for a full refund. FSIS is conducting retail effectiveness checks to make sure these products are being removed from store shelves. If a retail distribution list is published, it will be accessible at the USDA web site.
