WASHINGTON, July 26, 2012 – Piccadilly Fine Foods, a Santa Clara, Calif. establishment, is recalling
approximately 79 pounds of chicken and yam pie products that may include a curry paste containing shrimp, a known allergen not
declared on the product label, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today.
The products subject to recall are:
- Shipping cases containing 24 "Top Nosh Farmer's Market Chicken and Yam with Coconut Curry Pies."
- Individual 5.5 ounce "Top Nosh Farmer's Market Chicken and Yam with Coconut Curry Pies."
Each package label bears the establishment number "P-9216" inside the USDA mark of inspection. Additionally each package bears
the lot code 184-12. The lot code is stamped on the label side of the shipping cases and ink-jetted on the plastic film overwrap of
each individual pie. The products were produced on June 29, 2012, and sold to a San Jose, Calif.-area distributor for further distribution.
When available, the retail distribution list(s) will be posted on FSIS' website at:
www.fsis.usda.gov/FSIS_Recalls/
Open_Federal_Cases/index.asp.
The problem was discovered by FSIS during a routine label review and occurred as a result of a temporary change in the ingredient
formulation for the product. FSIS and the company have not received reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products.
Anyone concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider.
FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks (including at restaurants) to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the
recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers.
Consumers and reporters with questions about the recall should contact the company's Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points Coordinator,
David Hansen, at (408) 246-1200.
Consumers with food safety questions can "Ask Karen," the FSIS virtual representative available 24 hours a
day at AskKaren.gov or via smartphone at m.askkaren.gov.
"Ask Karen" live chat services are available Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. ET. The toll-free USDA Meat and
Poultry Hotline 1-888-MPHotline (1-888-674-6854) is available in English and Spanish and can be reached from l0 a.m. to 4 p.m.
(Eastern Time) Monday through Friday. Recorded food safety messages are available 24 hours a day.
