The problem was discovered by an FSIS inspector during a routine label review at the establishment, and occurred because of a spice ingredient change at the establishment.

FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks 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.
