WASHINGTON, Feb. 23, 2011 - Cedarlane Natural Foods, Inc., a Los Angeles, Calif., establishment, is recalling
approximately 1,050 pounds of chicken and noodle products, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection
Service (FSIS) announced today. These products are considered misbranded because the USDA mark of inspection does not appear on
the package labels that are available to consumers.
The products subject to recall include:
- Cases containing six 16-ounce trays of "Wholesome Home Chicken & Noodles." The sell-by date "09/21/11" is ink jetted on the side of each case, and the Julian date "10264" can be found on the label of each 16-ounce tray.
The establishment number "P-31673" is listed inside the USDA mark of inspection printed on each case, but the mark of
inspection is not printed on the individual tray labels, which are available to consumers. The chicken and noodle products were
produced on Sept. 21, 2010, packaged on Sept. 23, 2010, and distributed to retail stores in Arizona, California, and Texas.
The distributor discovered the problem and notified Cedarlane Natural Foods, who then notified FSIS. It was determined that the
USDA mark of inspection was dropped from labels for this particular production day due to a printing error. FSIS and Cedarlane
Natural Foods 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 Operations Manager Dani Saar at (310) 886-7720 ext. 210.
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.
