Inexport Logistics LLC, a Miami-based company, is recalling about 189 pounds of potato chip products.
The chips contained chicharrón, or pork cracklings, and are being recalled because they were produced in Colombia, "a country that is not eligible to export meat products to the United States," according to the the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).
The products that are subject to recall "do not bear any import marks on the labels."
The FSIS said the problem was identified during a "recall effectiveness check where the ineligible product" was seen in a retail location.
There have been "no confirmed reports of illness or injury due to consumption of these products," but the FSIS is "concerned that some product may
be in consumers' pantries." Anyone who has purchased the products shouldn't consume them, and should instead throw them away or return them to where they were purchased.
Where were the recalled products shipped to?
The products were shipped to "distributors and retail locations" in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, Minnesota and Texas.
Which products are subject to recall?
According to the Food Safety and Inspection Service, the following products are subject to recall, regardless of the product date:
- 60-g. foil bags of “YUPI GOLPE CON TODO SABOR BBQ” mixed chips with “Clásicas,” “PLATANOS,” and “Chicharrón Fred.”
