A U.S. company is recalling approximately 5,100 pounds of summer sausage because of the presence of milk protein, an undeclared allergen.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service said the voluntary recall by the Hempler Foods Group of Ferndale, Wash., centers on hydrolyzed sodium caseinate, a potential allergen.
The 16-ounce packages of RESER'S FINE FOODS, Premium BEEF SUMMER SAUSAGE, Natural Smoke Flavoring Added were distributed to retail stores in Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Oregon and Washington.
Each label bears the establishment number EST. 6410 inside the USDA seal of inspection. Each package also bears a Sell by date of 3/13/07, 3/18/07, 4/25/07, 5/16/07, 6/16/07 or 8/27/07.
The problem was discovered by the company but no reports of illness have been received, the FSIS said.
Consumers with questions about the recall should contact the company at 360-380-6685.
