The FSIS said it discovered the problem during a routine surveillance at a retailer where it found meat and poultry from the Philippines.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions from consuming the products, but FSIS urged retailers not to sell the products, restaurants not to serve them, and consumers not to consume them.

The FSIS also urged consumers to double-bag the products before throwing them away to reduce the chance that they will be eaten by animals, because the USDA cannot confirm whether the products have been properly heated to control pathogens that could harm livestock and poultry.

Consumers with questions about the alert may contact Redsealuxury, LLC owner John Ducar by phone at 646-669-4020 or by email at [email protected].
