- WASHINGTON, Jan. 30, 2015 Clemens Food Group, a Hatfield, Pa. establishment, is recalling approximately 42 pounds of uncooked pork rib products due to misbranding and an undeclared allergen, the U.S. Department of Agricultures Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. The products may contain peanut, a known allergen, which is not declared on the product label. The following
- products are subject to recall[ Label ] Two 20-lb. cases with code #4109 containing 6 individually wrapped and labeled packages with code 354 of Hatfield Smokey Chipotle Dry Rub Seasoned St. Louis Style Ribs The products subject to recall, which bear the establishment number EST. 791 inside the USDA mark of inspection, were produced December 20, 2014. One case was shipped internally to the Clemens Food Group Employee Store, and the other case was shipped to one of seven possible individual retail locations in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The problem was discovered when Clemens Food Group was notified by its spice supplier that the cumin in a spice mix used to formulate the products may have been contaminated with peanut. Clemens Food Group then informed FSIS of the issue. FSIS and the company have received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.
