AJC International, Inc. is recalling approximately 17,428 pounds of frozen, raw pork front hocks that were imported from Canada but not presented for required federal reinspection. These 33-lb cases were shipped to distributors in Hawaii and American Samoa, as well as exported to Palau. No illnesses or adverse reactions have been reported to date, but the products lack the necessary safety verification that comes with the import inspection process. Consumers and institutions should check their freezers for these items and return them for a refund or throw them away.
The products were imported without the benefit of import reinspection by the USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service, which means their safety for consumption cannot be verified according to U.S. standards.
