Plain-English summary

Mulan Dumpling, LLC, a Hyattsville, Maryland establishment, is recalling approximately 22,874 pounds of frozen meat and poultry dumpling products. The recall was initiated because the products were produced without the benefit of federal inspection, despite bearing the USDA mark of inspection. The affected products include 8-oz. plastic bag packages containing 10 pieces of “Mulan Dumpling Pork & Cabbage Dumplings,” “Mulan Dumpling Curry Seasoned Chicken Dumplings,” and “Mulan Dumpling Shrimp & Chives Dumplings” containing pork.

The products were produced on various dates prior to June 26, 2023. Initially distributed to retail grocery stores in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C., the distribution scope was expanded to retailers nationwide in an update on August 4, 2023. The issue was discovered after the Maryland Department of Health referred the matter to the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), which observed that the establishment was not granted federal inspection.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. The products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase. Anyone concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider.
