Solomon Snacks Recalls Meat Pies for Undeclared Allergens and Lack of Inspection

Plain-English summary

Solomon Snacks and Bakery, a New Brighton, Minnesota establishment, is recalling approximately 873 pounds of meat pie products. The recall was announced by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) on June 4, 2016. The affected products include 5-oz. packages of Beef, Chicken, and Turkey meat pies, as well as unlabeled Styrofoam boxes containing 5-oz. frozen meat pies.

The products were produced between February 2016 and May 2016 and were shipped to retail locations in Illinois and Minnesota. The recall is necessary because the items were produced without the benefit of federal inspection and do not bear the USDA mark of inspection. Additionally, the products contain eggs, milk, and wheat, which are known allergens not declared on the finished product labels. The issue was discovered by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which notified FSIS.

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