Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Pigeon Caterers, Inc., doing business as Carnival Brands, is issuing a public health alert for approximately 140 pounds of ready-to-eat Cajun Mac containing chicken and pork. These products were produced without the benefit of federal inspection, which is required to ensure food safety and quality standards are met. The 6-ounce plastic containers were sold at the Moxy Hotel in New Orleans, Louisiana, with 'Enjoy By' dates ranging from May 17, 2017, through January 20, 2018.

Risk

Eating meat and poultry products that have not been inspected by federal authorities increases the risk of consuming contaminated or unsafe food. While no illnesses have been reported, products produced without inspection do not have the same safety guarantees as those that undergo full federal oversight.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your refrigerator or freezer for 6 oz. plastic containers of 'CAJUN MAC' with 'ENJOY BY' dates between May 17, 2017, and January 20, 2018.
  2. Verify if the product is missing the USDA mark of inspection on the label.
  3. Do not eat the recalled product; return it to the place of purchase for a full refund, throw it away, or contact the manufacturer for further instructions.
  4. If you choose to contact the manufacturer, call Jean-Pierre Pigeon, Owner of Pigeon Caterers, at (504) 915-7038.
  5. If you are concerned about a potential illness after eating this product, contact a healthcare provider immediately.
  6. For general food safety questions, call the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-888-674-6854.
