Ready-to-eat and raw meat products recalled by FSIS

A high-risk health warning was issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) after a third party has reported a violation of safety laws from The Beautiful Pig Inc., a Washington based producer of pork and beef.
An undetermined amount of ready-to-eat and raw pork and beef products have been recalled from the market after FSIS has been noticed that the products were shipped to retailers in Washington and Oregon without the benefit of inspection and were also under U.S. retention when delivered.
The products were produced on various dates from June 2, 2017, through July 8, 2018. The inspectors warn the consumers who have purchased these products not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
The product labels do not include any identifying lot codes or use by dates and were distributed to retail locations in Oregon and Washington.
The problem was discovered when FSIS received a report from a third party regarding sales of a product that had not been produced with the benefit of inspection, informs the federal agency.
