Daniel’s Western Meat Packers, a Pico Rivera, Calif., establishment, is recalling approximately 16,290 pounds of frozen turkey patty products because they were inadvertently mislabeled and may contain an undeclared allergen, wheat, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. Wheat is a known potential allergen, which is not declared on the label.

The product subject to recall includes:

• 10.93-pound cases of 7-ounce frozen “DANIEL’S WESTERN MEAT PACKERS, TURKEY PATTIES, KEEP REFRIGERATED.”

Each case bears the establishment number “EST. P-2896″ inside the USDA mark of inspection. The frozen turkey patty products were produced on February 18, 2009, March 27, 2009, April 1, 2009, April 10, 2009, April 17, 2009, May 23, 2009, December 28, 2009, and January 22, 2010, and were distributed to distributors and restaurants in California and Illinois.
