Raw meat is being pulled from shelves across three different states after coming into contact with non food-grade mineral seal oil at the manufacturer. US Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service reported the recall of nearly 93,277 pounds of raw meat products from MF Meats, a Falconer, New York establishment. Read on for more details, including exactly which products the recall includes.

Raw Meat Recall

According to FSIS, non-food grade mineral seal oil had been applied to food contact surfaces at the manufacturer, but had not made direct contact with meat products. However, the recall came after four separate complaints from restaurants citing reports of a chemical taste in the meat products. The affected products were shipped to restaurants in New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.

The affected meats were produced between Nov. 26th 2023 through Feb. 16th 2024, and contain various weights of meat cuts and ground meat. The products have Julian dates of 330-365 (Nov. 26-Dec. 31) and 1-47 (Jan. 1-Feb. 16) printed on the packaging. They also bear the number EST. 569 inside of the USDA mark of inspection.

FSIS encourages restaurants to check their refrigerators and freezers to be sure that they do not have any stores of the contaminated product. Though there have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to the consumption of the products, negative bodily reactions have not been ruled out.

Consumers with questions about the recall can call Doug Neckers, President of MF Meats, at 716-483-4050 or email info@mfmeats.com
