Texas Natural Meats is recalling approximately 116 pounds of frozen Beef Tongue products because they may contain specified risk materials (SRMs). SRMs are tissues that can carry the agent that causes Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), also known as Mad Cow Disease. The affected products were produced between April 1, 2016, and November 11, 2017, and were shipped to product owners and distributed in Texas.
These products may be contaminated with specified risk materials, which are prohibited from entering the food supply because they are known to carry the infectious agent for BSE. While no illnesses have been reported, consuming products with SRMs poses a potential health risk.
