WASHINGTON, Aug. 26, 2017 (USDA FSIS release) — Ronald A. Chisholm, Ltd., a Toronto, Ontario establishment, is recalling 12,169 pounds of skinless pork belly products that were not presented at the U.S. point of entry for inspection, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced Saturday. Without the benefit of full inspection, a possibility of adverse health consequences exists.
The products were produced and packaged from June 27, 2017 to July 20, 2017. The following products are subject to recall:
- Approximately 40-lb. cardboard box containing “FLANC PORC, PORK BELLY.”
The products subject to recall bear case code “815157” and establishment number “10” inside the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) mark of inspection. These items were shipped to restaurants in Hawaii.
The problem was discovered on Aug. 23, 2017 by FSIS while conducting routine failure to present monitoring activities.
