Empanadas Valrico Inc. is recalling approximately 6,247 pounds of frozen beef and chicken empanada products that were produced and distributed without federal inspection. The recall affects 10-piece (1.6-lb) and 25-piece (4.6-lb) clear plastic bags of Steak and Chicken empanadas sold between March and September 2022. While no adverse reactions have been reported, these products were produced in a facility that was not inspected by the USDA, which is required for meat and poultry products to ensure food safety standards are met.
Meat and poultry products produced without federal inspection have not undergone safety verification to ensure they are free of pathogens or produced under sanitary conditions, posing a potential risk of foodborne illness.
