Global Zakii Enterprises Recalls Canned Meat and Poultry Products

Plain-English summary

Global Zakii Enterprises, LLC, a Houston, Texas establishment, is recalling approximately 174 pounds of canned meat and canned poultry products. The affected items include various sizes of UNIUM Chicken Luncheon, UNIUM Luncheon Meat, BISHAWY Extra CORNED BEEF, and TRADE MARK SHARAWI Extra CORNED BEEF PRODUCT OF BRAZIL. These products were imported on or about September 20, 2019, and shipped to retail locations in Texas.

The recall was initiated because the products were not presented for import re-inspection and were imported from Jordan, a country ineligible to export products to the United States. The issue was discovered following a consumer complaint and a subsequent investigation by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS). FSIS classifies this as a Class I recall, indicating a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to the product may cause serious adverse health consequences or death.

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.
