More than 24K pounds of beef recalled for being ‘unfit for human consumption’: USDA
Approximately 24,428 pounds of raw beef products are being recalled because they have been found to be “unfit for human consumption,” according to a recall notice from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).
The recalled beef products, from Chino, Calif.-based American Beef Packers, Inc., include boneless beef, boneless beef chucks, ribeyes, sirloins and tenderloins.
On Aug. 30, American Beef Packers informed the FSIS that a carcass with pending laboratory results had been mistakenly released and processed into beef products, the notice said. Those products were then “distributed in commerce.”
The FSIS has collected a sample of the carcass for its own analysis, the notice said.
According to the recall notice, no one has reported adverse effects from consuming the recalled beef products.
