Core Tip: New York-based Transatlantic Foods Inc. late Friday recalled approximately 222,000 pounds of pork and poultry products that was not inspected by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
New York-basedPork Transatlantic Foods Inc. late Friday recalled approximately 222,000 pounds of pork and poultry products that was not inspected by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The recall stems from an anonymous tip about the company’s practices that was investigated by USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).

FSIS announced the recall action. It’s too early to know if there will be any illnesses from the recalled meat products.

Transatlantic operates two establishments — one in Scranton, PA, and one in Andover, NJ. FSIS said the recall is underway because the Andover establishment had not been issued a “Grant of Inspection” by the agency.

Without the Grant of Inspection, FSIS inspection program personnel were not assigned to the establishment. However, the investigation found the Andover establishment was producing product and using labels approved for use by, and bearing the establishment number of, the Scranton facility.

Products produced without inspection are considered unfit for human consumption and must be recalled. In addition, products were produced in undisclosed locations without the benefit of inspection. The products subject to recall include:
