US company recalls almost 13 tonnes of meat products due to misbranding

Winter Sausage Manufacturing Co, an Eastpointe, Mich. establishment, is recalling approximately 28,346 pounds (12.85 tonnes) of poultry, pork, and beef products due to misbranding, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced recently.

The poultry products were slaughtered under religious exemption, which is not declared on the product label.

The poultry, pork, and beef items were produced on various dates from March 9, 2018 through June 4, 2018. 

These items were shipped to retail locations and distributors in Illinois, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

The problem was discovered on June 12, 2018 by FSIS during routine labeling verification.
