Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Al Shabrawy Meat Inc. is recalling approximately 3,512 pounds of various meat and poultry products including basterma, salami, bologna, sausage, and meat pies sold under several brand names. These products, produced between January 2015 and August 2016, contain undeclared allergens like soy and pistachio nuts that are not listed on the label. Additionally, the agency discovered some beef products contained poultry ingredients, undeclared Red Dye #40, and beef trim that was not intended for raw products. While no adverse reactions have been reported, consumers should not eat these items and should return them to the store or throw them away.

Risk

The products contain soy and pistachio nuts, which are known allergens and can cause serious or life-threatening allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Other products were found to contain poultry, undeclared food dye, or beef ingredients that did not meet specific cooking safety standards.
