USDA warns consumption of meat produced by company without federal inspection

The US Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has warned the US public not to consume certain beef and lamb products that were produced by One Meat Corp without the benefit of federal inspection.

One Meat Corp conducts its business as Eastern Asia Trading Corp.

A recall was not recommended as it is believed that the affected products are no longer available to be purchased by consumers, according to the public alert posted by the FSIS. However, the label information reported in the notice does not include any expiratory dates. The products were sold nationwide via internet sales. The warning did not include any product photographs.

"FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers' freezers. Anyone concerned about an illness should contact a health care provider," the recall notice says. "Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase."

The affected items were shipped to online retailer Weee! Corporation and sold directly to consumers through online sales nationwide.
