Chicharrones J&J is recalling approximately 2,064 pounds of rendered animal fat (pork lard) because it contains milk and sodium nitrite that are not listed on the label. The products were sold in 1-lb, 2-lb, and 3-lb plastic tubs and were produced between June 16, 2016, and October 12, 2016. While no illnesses have been reported, consumers who have purchased these products should not eat them and should instead return them to the store or throw them away.
The product contains milk, a known allergen, and sodium nitrite which were not declared on the label. This poses a serious or life-threatening risk of a severe allergic reaction for people with a milk allergy or sensitivity.
