FSIS Issues Public Health Alert for ReadyToEat Meat Snack Products Containing FDARegulated Wafers that Have Been Recalled Due to Misbranding and an Undeclared Allergen

The meat snack items were produced with the recalled chocolate wafers on various dates from January 2, 2023, through January 18, 2023. The following products are subject to the public health alert [view labels]:

The products subject to the public health alert bear establishment number “645” inside the Canadian mark of inspection. These items were shipped to retail locations nationwide.

The problem was discovered when the producing establishment was notified by their wafer supplier that the chocolate wafers are being recalled because they may contain peanut residue, a known allergen, which is not declared on the label. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) notified FSIS that the recalled wafers were used in products distributed to the United States.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.  

FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers’ refrigerators. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
