Red Square Foods, Inc. Recalls Frozen Meat and Poultry Products Over Undeclared Allergens


— October 28, 2018

If you’re a fan of Red Square Foods, Inc. products, this recall is for you. Earlier this weekend, the Somerset, New Jersey company issued a recall of an “undetermined amount of various frozen meat and poultry ravioli and blintzes products” over concerns that some of the products may be mislabeled or contain undeclared allergens. The recall was announced by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) which noted that the recalled products “contain eggs, milk, and/or wheat, all known allergens, which are not declared on the product label.”

According to the recall notice, the frozen products were produced and packaged between October 6, 2016, and October 24, 2018. Additionally, the products have establishment numbers ‘EST. 18874’ or ‘P-18874’ printed inside the USDA mark of inspection and were shipped to retailers throughout New Jersey, New York, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Ohio.

The issue itself was discovered earlier this month when FSIS inspectors conducted a routine label verification. Fortunately, no confirmed instances of consumers experiencing adverse reactions have been reported from consuming the products. However, if you recently consumed one of the recalled products and think you may be ill, contact your healthcare provider.

For now, if you have one of the recalled products in your freezer, either throw it away or return it to the place of purchase. If you have additional questions about the recall, contact Boris Rapoport, the CEO of Red Square Foods, Inc. by calling (732) 846-0190 or emailing office@redsquarefoods.com.
