NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - A Belle Rose food manufacturer wants people to stop using more than 30,000 pounds of its meat and poultry products.

A La Carte Foods properties issued a recall Oct. 15 of a variety items that contain meat that has not been inspected.

The ready-to-eat frozen products were produced from January 2017 to this month. They include:

12-lb. ready-to-eat frozen packages containing “PONCHATOULAS JAMBALYA RICE with CHICKEN THIGH MEAT AND SMOKED SAUSAGE,” and “Item Number 208304,” and Batch # 25518, 26818, and 27518.

The products subject to recall bear establishment number “EST. 13375” or “P-13375” inside the USDA mark of inspection. These items were shipped to restaurant locations in Louisiana and Texas.

The problem was discovered when A La Carte Foods Properties, LLC personnel notified FSIS on Oct. 11, 2018 that they used meat products from a source that was not federally-inspected to formulate their federally inspected ready-to-eat products.

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

FSIS is concerned that some product is in restaurants’ freezers. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
