Agency Publication Date: February 13, 2015

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

ATM International USA, Inc. is recalling approximately 1,999 pounds of various vacuum-packed chilled boneless beef cuts imported from Japan. These products, which include cuts like Ribeye, Tenderloin, and Brisket, were sold to distributors and retail locations in Arizona, California, and Washington between October 9, 2014, and January 15, 2015. The recall was issued because the meat was not presented for mandatory U.S. import inspection at the point of entry.

Risk

Because these beef products bypassed the required U.S. Department of Agriculture food safety inspection process, there is a possibility of adverse health consequences if the meat is contaminated or improperly handled. No illnesses have been reported to date, but the benefit of full safety oversight was lost.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your refrigerator or freezer for vacuum-packed chilled boneless beef imported from Japan with labels in Japanese.
  2. Identify affected products by looking for the Japanese establishment number 'M2' on cardboard boxes, or the U.S. establishment number 'EST. 27510' inside the USDA mark of inspection on Styrofoam boxes.
  3. Verify if your box has any of the following markings: MZA-TN41, MZA-TN28, or MZA-TN1.
  4. If you have any of these products, contact the company or your place of purchase for disposal or return instructions; do not consume the product.
  5. Contact Yuya Hagiwara, COO of ATM International USA, Inc., at (424) 246-2892 with any specific questions regarding this recall.
  6. For additional food safety questions, call the USDA Meat & Poultry Hotline at 1-888-674-6854.
