02 Nov Uninspected, Misbranded Meat Recalled in Texas

According to a release by the USDA, a high health risk recall is in effect for pork and beef products produced by Lao Chareune Foods of Dallas, Texas. The products include 3-ounce and 8-ounce packages containing "Pork Snack Stick" food, 3.2-ounce packages containing "Seasoned Fried Beef", 1.76-ounce packages containing "Fried Pork Skins" and 1.2-ounce packages containing Slights Fried Pork Ears".

The notice details that the packages will contain the establishment number "EST. 13479".

Mislabeling and the lack of inspection led to the recalls. If you have questions about any of these products, you can call (214) 330-5995 for more information.

Food Recalls

Food products are among the most dangerous products that cause injury. A simple act of mislabeling food can result in people having allergic reactions to substances that they didn't realize were in the food at all. In addition to this, people may end up consuming food that was not inspected properly, and that could mean that the food is infected with some type of an organism that can cause serious injury or death.

With so many food recall notices out there, it's obvious that, for the most part, the system in place does work fairly well. Manufacturers do tend to recall food that somehow fails to meet safety standards very quickly. Federal agencies charged with keeping food quality high are generally quick to react when there is a problem. There are situations, however, where these foods end up causing serious injuries and even death. Vegetables infected with various organisms have provided unfortunate, but telling, examples of this.

Suing

Saying that contaminated food can cause serious injuries or death is not exaggerating. Even in young people, a bad case of food poisoning can be life-threatening. In older people and people with compromised immune systems, food poisoning can be a very serious issue and oftentimes requires hospitalization.

If you suffered the effects of food that was mislabeled, uninspected or otherwise dangerous, make certain that you contact an attorney about the matter. They will be able to give you information about pursuing a lawsuit and, if it seems like that would be a good option for you, they may very well encourage you to take it. If they don't believe that you have a lawsuit, an attorney who works on contingency will simply let you know, as they don't get paid for taking lawsuits that do not win in court or through a settlement.
