WASHINGTON – The US Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service announced on Sept. 25 the recall of 1,271 lbs of ready-to-eat (RTE) pork chicharrones products imported from Honduras, a country ineligible to export pork products to the United States.
The problem was discovered during a routine FSIS surveillance activity at a retail store where the agency found the pork chicharrones product from Honduras.
The following product is subject to recall, regardless of the product date:
- 100 gram foil pouch packages containing “DEL RANCHO CHICHARRONES AUTENTICOS 100% PRODUCTO DE CERDO.”
The product subject to recall does not bear an establishment number nor a USDA mark of inspection. These items were shipped to distributors and retail locations in Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas.
