(WJW) – Over 15,000 pounds of ready-to-eat jerky and snack stick products are being recalled due to misbranding and undeclared allergens.
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), the recalled products, made by Springville Meat & Cold Storage Co., Inc., contain anchovies, a known allergen that is not declared on the product label.
According to FSIS, production observations by its inspectors revealed that anchovies were contained in the Worcestershire sauce used in the jerky and snack stick products. Worcestershire sauce without anchovies had been previously used.
The recall includes a total of about 15,388 pounds of not only beef products, but venison, buffalo, and elk jerky as well.
Here’s what else to know:
