MF Meats, based in New York, has recalled 93,277 pounds of raw meat that's been distributed within the state, as well as Ohio and Pennsylvania, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
According to the recall, the meat may contain non-food grade mineral seal oil, which is not approved for meat processing.
The raw meats were produced between Nov. 26, 2023 through Feb. 16, 2024. The recall includes various weights of meat cuts and ground meat, with Julian dates of 330-365 (Nov. 26 - Dec. 31) and 1-47 (Jan. 1 - Feb. 16). View the full list of recalled products here.
The USDA said the problem was discovered after there were four complaints from restaurants saying there was a chemical taste in the meat products. As of Monday, there have been no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of the products.
The USDA said it's concerned that some of the products may be stocked away in restaurants' freezers and refrigerators, and urges owners to throw away the contaminated meats or return them to the place of purchase.
