The FSIS announced the recall of approximately 1,455 pounds of smoked baby rope sausage by Kelley Foods due to misbranding and an undeclared allergen. The product contains cheese, thereby milk, a known allergen, which is not declared on the product label. This product was shipped to retail locations in Alabama and Florida. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to the consumption of this product.
The recalled product is:
- 12-oz. vacuum-packed packages containing “KELLEY Naturally Hardwood Smoked JALAPEÑO PEPPER BABY ROPE SAUSAGE” code 2705493011 and a use or freeze by date of May 11, 2023.
The recalled product was produced on Jan. 10, 2023 and bears the establishment number “EST. 8016” inside the USDA mark of inspection.
The problem was discovered when the firm notified FSIS that a grocery store manager found that the Kelley Foods Jalapeño Pepper Baby Rope Sausage appeared to contain cheddar cheese, which was not listed as an ingredient on the product label. Upon further investigation, the firm confirmed that its jalapeño and cheddar baby rope sausage product contained the wrong label.
FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers’ refrigerators or freezers. If you have an allergy or are sensitive to milk do not eat it, it may cause a serious or life-threatening reaction. Please throw it away or return it to the place of purchase.
