Maid-Rite Beef Products Recalled for Undeclared Milk

Agency Publication Date: June 8, 2017

Summary

Maid-Rite Specialty Foods, LLC. is recalling approximately 174,000 pounds of various beef products, including Salisbury steaks, burgers, and meatballs, because they contain milk that is not listed on the label. The issue was discovered when a supplier notified the company that the bread crumbs used in these products potentially contained undeclared milk. These items were produced between March 13, 2017, and May 26, 2017, and shipped to institutional locations across the United States and Canada.

Risk
