UNITED STATES-POULTRY MEAT RECALL.
A Washington state company is recalling turkeky soup products because they contain an undeclared allergen, USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service announced over the weekend.
Mukilteo, Wash.-based Ivar’s Soup, Seafood and Sauce is recalling some 37,776 pounds of turkey soup products because they may contain milk, the agency said in a release on its Web site. Milk is a known allergen, which is not declared on the label.
The turkey soup products were produced on various dates between Feb. 28, 2008 and April 7, 2009, and were shipped to institutional establishments in California, Idaho, Oregon and Washington and are not available for direct consumer purchase.
The following products are subject to recall:
12-pound boxes of "E.R.I, Turkey Flavored Egg Noodle Soup Base with Turkey Meat." Each label has the establishment number "P- 20173" inside the USDA mark of inspection and a "Produced On" date stamped onto the box.
12-pound boxes of "Two Spoon Homestyle Soups, Turkey Flabored Egg Noodle Soup Base with Turkey Meat." Each label bears the establishment number "EST. 20173" inside the USDA mark of inspection and a "Produced On" date stamped onto the box.
Inside each box are four, 3-pound pouches of frozen product, which also bear a production date stamped onto the individual packages.
The problem was discovered by a routine product inspection conducted by the establishment. FSIS has received no reports of illness due to consumption of these products.
