FSIS warns of Myanmar meat and poultry

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is urging consumers to avoid certain meat and poultry products imported illegally from Myanmar. These products lack proper inspection and may pose a health risk.

The recall involves various canned and packaged meat items, including beef curry, chicken biryani, duck blood, and fish. The full list includes -

180-g cans of "BEST BEEF CURRY"

425-g cans of "BEST Chicken Biryani"

360-g cans of "Hti Mi Gwik Dry MoHinGa Paste"

425-g cans of "BEST Myanmar Duck Blood"

400-g cans of "Eain Chak MoHinGa Paste"

160-g vacuum sealed packages of "Min Thar Gyi Dried Fish"

400-g cans of "Eain Chak Coconut Soup Paste"

These products lack a USDA inspection mark and establishment number, raising concerns about their safety and origin. They were distributed to retailers in Arizona, California, Iowa, Kansas, Maryland, Minnesota, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Texas.

The FSIS is investigating how these products entered the country. Thankfully, no illnesses have been linked to these products yet. However, FSIS urges anyone who purchased them to throw them away or return them to the store.

Consumers with questions can contact the FSIS at 1-888-MPHotline (1-888-674-6854) or visit their website at https://foodcomplaint.fsis.usda.gov/eCCF/.
