The USDA has issued a public health alert for 1-lb. vacuum-sealed packages of "Mortadela ESPECIAL BOLOGNIA" pork product. These frozen ready-to-eat items may have been illegally imported from Ecuador, a country that is not authorized to export meat and poultry products to the United States. The issue was discovered during routine surveillance, and while no illnesses have been reported, the product lacks the required USDA mark of inspection.
These products were imported from a country ineligible to export meat to the U.S. and did not undergo the required federal safety inspections, posing a risk of foodborne illness or other health hazards. Consumers should not eat these products as their safety and production conditions cannot be verified.
