1.6 million eggs recalled, contaminated
Midwest Poultry Services issued a recall for nearly 1.6 million dozen white and brown cage-free eggs due to potential salmonella contamination.
Maple Leaf Foods has recalled over 12,000 pounds of bacon imported to the United States from Canada due to an import violation, according to a notice from the Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).
The products were “imported from Canada without the benefit of import reinspection into the United States,” the FSIS stated in its July 24 notice.
The recall affects not ready-to-eat smoked bacon products distributed to retailers in Idaho, Oregon and Washington state, according to the FSIS.
No illnesses have been reported related to the product, per the recall notice.
The recall also comes about a week after President Donald Trump’s administration announced 50% tariffs on many Canadian imports. The tariffs, expected to impact goods imported into the United States from Canada’s auto, alcohol and dairy industries, are scheduled to take effect on Aug. 19. However, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has signaled he is open to negotiations, so the final rate and scope may still change.
