SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Nov. 19, 2018 (Gephardt Daily) — A Salt Lake City company is recalling approximately 11,000 pounds of marinated, raw poultry products because of misbranding and undeclared allergens.

Deleite Food Enterprises is recalling the products because they contain wheat and soy, known allergens, which are not declared on the product label, a news release from the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service said late Monday.

“The marinated diced chicken thigh meat was produced and packaged on Oct. 12, 15, and 16, 2018,” the news release said.
The following products are subject to recall:
  • 30-lb. cases, each containing 3 10-lb. bags of frozen “MARINATED CHICKEN THIGH MEAT DICED – SUPC 7009466” and bearing lot codes 101218, 101518, or 101618.

The products subject to recall have establishment number “P-46130” inside the USDA mark of inspection. These items were shipped to restaurants in Utah.

“The problem was discovered during routine label verification activities by an FSIS inspector, who found that the product did not include an ingredient statement nor declare soy and wheat.

“There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products,” the news release said. “Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.”
