A high-risk recall has been issued for approximately 7,485 pounds of raw Italian pork sausage products produced by Impero Foods & Meats, Inc., a Baltimore-based establishment. The US Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has designated the recall as Class I, citing a “health hazard situation” due to the risk of serious adverse health consequences or death.
The affected products were distributed to retailers and food service locations in Delaware, Maryland, and Pennsylvania, and were packaged in 10-pound white cardboard boxes containing plastic bags. The establishment number “EST. 10827” is printed inside the USDA mark of inspection.
FSIS warns that some sausages may have been sold at deli counters without labels or identification, increasing the risk of unintentional consumption. The recall was initiated due to a production period from October 3 to December 19, 2024, where the facility operated under a suspended grant of inspection.
Consumers and businesses are urged to discard or return the affected items, as there have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption. However, if symptoms persist, individuals should contact their healthcare provider.
