WASHINGTON, Oct. 27, 2011 - Original Fried Pies, Inc., a Davis, Okla., establishment, is
recalling approximately 8,888 pounds of frozen meat and poultry pie products, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's
(USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today because they are misbranded and contain sodium
benzoate, a food preservative, which does not appear on package labels and is not approved for use as an added
ingredient in meat and poultry products.
The products subject to recall include:
- 4-pound sealed bags of "CHEESE SAUCE WITH EGG & SAUSAGE."
- 4-pound sealed bags of "CHEESE SAUCE WITH EGG & BACON."
- 4-pound sealed bags of "CHEESE SAUCE WITH BROCCOLI AND WHITE MEAT CHICKEN."
- 4-pound sealed bags of "SAUCE WITH VEGETABLES AND WHITE MEAT CHICKEN."
The products bear the establishment number "EST. 33883" or "P-33883" inside the USDA mark
of inspection and the 'Made in Oklahoma' logo on the label. The products were produced between April 27 and
Oct. 27, 2011 and distributed for use at restaurant locations in Arkansas, Colorado, Mississippi, Missouri,
Oklahoma and Texas.
The problem was discovered during routine FSIS verification procedures. FSIS and Original Fried Pies, Inc.
have received no reports of illnesses or adverse reactions due to consumption of these products.
FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the recall
and that steps are taken to make certain that the products are no longer available to consumers.
Consumers and media with questions about the recall should contact the company's owner, Bo Fulton, at (580) 369-7830.
Consumers with food safety questions can "Ask Karen," the FSIS virtual representative available
24 hours a day at AskKaren.gov. The toll-free USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline
1-888-MPHotline (1-888-674-6854) is available in English and Spanish and can be reached from l0 a.m. to 4 p.m.
(Eastern Time) Monday through Friday. Recorded food safety messages are available 24 hours a day.
