WASHINGTON, Oct 20, 2011 - Kuck’s Turkey Farm, a St. Marys, Ohio establishment,
is recalling approximately 2,325 pounds of fully cooked skinless turkey breast products. The products
contain wheat and soy, which are not declared on the label, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food
Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. Wheat and soy are known allergens.
The products subject to recall include:
- Cartons containing 7- and 8-lb. packages of "AMISH HERITAGE "ROTISSERIE SEASONINGS" TURKEY BREAST."
The products subject to recall bear the establishment number "P-34592" inside the USDA mark of inspection
on the package label, a sticker with sell-by dates from 10/09/11 to 11/28/11 on each package, and a case
code of "62012" on each carton. The products were produced between Sept. 4, 2011, and Oct. 14, 2011 and
were shipped to a distributor and a retail establishment in Ohio.
The issue was discovered by an FSIS inspector conducting a routine labeling review. FSIS and the company
have received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about
a reaction should contact a healthcare provider.
FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the
recall and to ensure that steps are taken to ensure that the product is no longer available to consumers.
Consumers and media with questions about the recall should contact the company’s manager, Karl Kuck,
at (419) 753-2620.
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.
Ask Karen is available as an app for your iPad, iPhone, or
Android mobile device, so you can take her with you to the
grocery store, to the barbecue grill, or wherever you may have
food safety questions. Go to
m.AskKaren.gov on your mobile device's browser, or download
