Minnesota Firm Recalls Beef Sticks Due To Mislabeling
WASHINGTON, June 30, 2006 - Wild Side Processing, LLC., a Saginaw, Minn., establishment, is voluntarily recalling approximately 765 pounds of beef stick products because they were mislabeled, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service announced today. The products require refrigeration, which is not stated on the label.
The following products are subject to recall: "Maple Hill Smokehouse & MEATS PEPPERONI BEEF STICK," NET WT. .16 or .32 lb. "Maple Hill Smokehouse & MEATS BEEF STICK," NET WT. .16 or .32 lb. "Maple Hill Smokehouse & MEATS JALAPENO & CHEDDAR BEEF STICK," NET WT. .16 or .32 lb. "Maple Hill Smokehouse & MEATS RED PEPPER BEEF STICK," NET WT. .16 or .32 lb.
Each beef stick displays the establishment number "EST. 20495" inside the USDA seal of inspection. On the back of each beef stick is a small white date sticker. The products subject to recall contain one of the following codes: "03226," "04136," "05096," "05176," "05236" or "06096."
The problem was discovered by FSIS inspection program personnel. FSIS has received no reports of illnesses associated with consumption of these products.
The beef sticks were produced between March 22 and June 9, 2006 and were distributed to retail outlets in northeast Minnesota and northwest Wisconsin.
