Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Taher, Inc. is recalling approximately 22,096 pounds of frozen meat products, specifically "Fresh Seasons Tator Tot Hot Dish" and "Fresh Seasons Sloppy Joe," because they were produced without federal inspection. While about 7,432 units have been recovered, these items were produced between February and September 2020 and shipped to institutional and food service locations. No illnesses or adverse reactions have been reported to date, but the products are considered high-risk due to the lack of safety oversight during production.

Risk

These products were manufactured without the benefit of federal inspection, meaning the safety and sanitary conditions of the production process were not verified by health officials. Consuming uninspected meat products poses a potential risk of foodborne illness or exposure to contaminants that were not screened for during production.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your freezer for 16-lb. boxes of "Fresh Seasons Tator Tot Hot Dish" with lot code 056-282 and barcode 108101060239.
  2. Check your freezer for 16-lb. boxes of "Fresh Seasons Sloppy Joe" with lot code 065-269 and barcode 1081010602366.
  3. Look for the establishment number "EST. 45091" inside the USDA mark of inspection on the packaging, though some affected products may not have this number.
  4. Return the product to the place of purchase for a refund, throw it away, or contact the manufacturer for further instructions.
  5. If you are concerned about a reaction or health issue after consuming these products, contact your healthcare provider.
  6. Call the USDA Meat & Poultry Hotline at 1-888-674-6854 for additional questions regarding this recall.
