Minnesota Firm Recalls Beef Sticks Due To Mislabeling
WASHINGTON, June 30, 2006 - Wild Side Processing, LLC., a Saginaw, Minn., establishment, is voluntarily recalling approximately 765 pounds of beef stick products because they were mislabeled, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service announced today. The products require refrigeration, which is not stated on the label.
The following products are subject to recall: "Maple Hill Smokehouse & MEATS PEPPERONI BEEF STICK," NET WT. .16 or .32 lb. "Maple Hill Smokehouse & MEATS BEEF STICK," NET WT. .16 or .32 lb. "Maple Hill Smokehouse & MEATS JALAPENO & CHEDDAR BEEF STICK," NET WT. .16 or .32 lb. "Maple Hill Smokehouse & MEATS RED PEPPER BEEF STICK," NET WT. .16 or .32 lb.
Each beef stick displays the establishment number "EST. 20495" inside the USDA seal of inspection. On the back of each beef stick is a small white date sticker. The products subject to recall contain one of the following codes: "03226," "04136," "05096," "05176," "05236" or "06096."
The problem was discovered by FSIS inspection program personnel. FSIS has received no reports of illnesses associated with consumption of these products.
The beef sticks were produced between March 22 and June 9, 2006 and were distributed to retail outlets in northeast Minnesota and northwest Wisconsin.
In 2002, there were an estimated 212,400 toy-related injuries
The individual body parts having the most injuries overall were faces (45,400), heads (27,100) and mouths (16,200). Lacerations, contusions, and abrasions were involved in over half of the total injuries (53%). CPSC has reports of 13 children who died in toy-related deaths in 2002.
