Breakfast turkey sausages recalled for undeclared allergens and misbranding

Lititz, PA-based Sensenig Turkey Farm LLC  recalled approximately 1,925 pounds of turkey sausage products Thursday due to misbranding and undeclared allergens, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).

The products contain wheat and soy, known allergens, which are not declared on the product label.

The raw breakfast turkey sausage items were produced on various dates from Sept. 25, 2017, to Feb. 26, 2018. The recalled products include:

  • 10-lb. cases, each case containing two 5-lb. bulk packages of “Sensenig Turkey Farm LLC BREAKFAST TURKEY SAUSAGE.”
  • 1-lb. vacuum-sealed packages containing “Chestnut Farms BREAKFAST TURKEY SAUSAGE.”

The recalled products bear establishment number “P-38466” inside the USDA mark of inspection. The turkey was shipped to retail locations in Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

The mistakes were discovered by FSIS inspection personnel during routine inspection activities.

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.   Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.

FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers. When available, the retail distribution lists will be posted on the FSIS website.
