Plain-English summary

WFSP Foods LLC, a Decatur, Alabama establishment, is recalling approximately 18,672 pounds of pork and chicken sausage products due to misbranding and undeclared allergens. The specific product subject to the recall is 13.5-oz. packages of Land O Frost Simply Savory Bacon & Cheddar Smoked Sausage with a BEST BY date of DEC. 04 2016 and a packaging date of 06/07/16. These ready-to-eat items were produced on June 7, 2016, and bear establishment number EST. 45411.

The recall was initiated because the product contains milk, a known allergen, which is not declared on the product label. While the front of the package correctly identifies that the product contains cheese, the back label fails to list cheddar cheese as an ingredient or include milk in the 'Contains' allergen declaration. The problem was discovered by a company representative in a retail store and immediately reported to the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS). The products were shipped to retail locations nationwide.

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 an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider. Consumers with questions can contact the Land O Frost Consumer Hotline at 1(800) 762-9865.
