2.7 tonnes of pork products recalled in the US

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) said the items were shipped to retail locations in western New York as intact loaves for slicing.

The problem was discovered on Sept. 20, 2018 by FSIS inspectors while performing routine label verification activities. FSIS discovered that the establishment’s formulation for the use of sodium nitrite, a restricted ingredient, exceeded the regulatory limit.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.
