Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Gourmet Kitchen, Inc. is recalling approximately 16,722 pounds of various ready-to-cook beef and chicken appetizer products, including Beef Wellington, Satay, and Chicken Pinwheels, sold under brands such as Gourmet Kitchen, Gourmet Foods of Arizona, Impromptu, and MacKenzie Limited. These frozen appetizers were distributed to institutional and food service locations nationwide between October 15, 2014, and March 2, 2015. The recall is due to the presence of undeclared peanuts that were found to contaminate a spice mix used in the products.

Risk

These products contain undeclared peanuts, a known allergen, which can cause serious or life-threatening allergic reactions in individuals with a peanut sensitivity. While the probability of adverse health consequences is considered remote due to low levels of contamination, consumers with peanut allergies should not consume these items.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your freezer for any bulk packages of beef or chicken appetizers bearing establishment number 'EST. 18450' or 'EST. 18450 P' inside the USDA mark of inspection.
  2. Verify the case codes on the box against the list of affected products, such as B2018, B2028, B2032, B2078, B2148, C2036, C2050, C2054, C2084, C2290, GFB2018, GFB2078, IM70021, K1002, or MSB2018.
  3. Immediately stop using or serving any products that match the description and identifying codes.
  4. Contact Patricia Duffy at (732) 775-5222 for specific instructions regarding product return or disposal.
  5. Contact the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-888-674-6854 if you have additional food safety questions.
