Ravioli Recalled over Whey and Pork

Home Maid Ravioli Company, Inc., a San Francisco, Calif. establishment, is recalling approximately 34,200 pounds of beef ravioli products due to misbranding and undeclared allergens, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. The products contain whey, a known allergen, and pork, neither of which are declared on the product labels.  The products were also produced without the benefit of federal inspection.

The Home Maid ravioli items were produced on various dates between Sept. 20, 2015, and Jan. 15, 2016. The following products are subject to recall:

15-oz. cardboard boxed packages containing 54 pieces of “Ravioli.”
12-oz. cardboard boxed packages of “Ravioli.”
5-lb. bagged and boxed packages of “Ravioli with Sauce.”
10-lb. bagged and boxed packages of “Ravioli with Sauce.”
12-oz. cardboard boxed packages containing 24 pieces of “Deluxe Ravioli.”
12-oz. cardboard boxed packages containing 24 pieces of “Jumbo Deluxe Ravioli.”
12-oz. cardboard boxed packages containing 24 pieces of “Jumbo Ravioli.”
12-oz. cardboard boxed packages containing 48 pieces of “Ravioli Seasoned w Sausage.”
12-oz. cardboard boxed packages containing 24 pieces of “Ravioli Seasoned w Chicken.”
12-oz. plastic containers of “Ravioli and Spaghetti Italian Style Sauce.”
1-qt. plastic containers of “Italian Style Pasta Sauce.”
1-gal. plastic containers of “Italian Style Pasta Sauce.”
These items were shipped to retail locations in California.

The firm operates under the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA); however the products subject to recall are amenable. The problem was discovered by FSIS during a review of products at a different federal plant.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.
