Plain-English summary
European Meat Products Inc., a Lakewood, Colorado establishment, is recalling approximately 130,000 pounds of fresh and ready-to-eat beef and pork products. The recall is due to misbranding and the presence of an undeclared allergen. The affected products contain wheat, which is not declared on the labels.
The recalled items include various sizes of Huong Duyen Cooked Beef Meat Balls, Pork Meat Roll Browned in Soy Bean Oil, Fresh Pork Paste, and Pork Meat Roll. These products bear the establishment number EST. 7725 inside the USDA Mark of Inspection and were produced prior to January 17, 2014. The products were shipped to distributors, restaurants, and retail establishments in California, Colorado, and Illinois.
The issue was discovered by the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) during a routine food safety assessment label review. The error occurred due to a change in ingredient formulation without a corresponding update to the finished product label. FSIS and the company have received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Consumers concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider.
