More than 160,000 pounds of meat recalled; USDA assigns highest risk level
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
Star Meat Delivery Inc., based in Lucama, North Carolina, is recalling approximately 167,639 pounds of raw pork, beef, and goat products, according to an announcement made Tuesday by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The products were produced without the required federal inspection, meaning they were not confirmed to be 'safe, wholesome, and properly labeled' by the USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS). The announcement also notes that the recalled meat was labeled with a false USDA inspection mark. This recall has been classified as Class I, the highest health risk level. This classification applies to 'a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use or exposure to a product that violates the standards will cause serious health consequences or even death,' according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
