Plain-English summary
HF Food Distributors, an establishment in Orocovis, Puerto Rico, is recalling approximately 142 pounds of sliced cooked ham products. The recall was announced by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) on June 13, 2018. The affected products are 1-lb. plastic-wrapped packages of JAMON COCIDO REBANADO with a sell-by date of May 25, 00. These items were produced and packed on April 21, 2018.
The recall was initiated because the products were produced without the benefit of federal inspection. The packages do not bear an establishment number, mark of inspection, or an ingredients statement. The products were shipped wholesale to Head Start centers in Puerto Rico. FSIS discovered the issue on June 8, 2018, during recall effectiveness checks for a different recall (FSIS Recall 044-2018).
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. FSIS notes that some product may be frozen in consumers' freezers.
