Green Valley Foods recalls frozen meat pizza products due to misbranding

The problem was discovered during routine FSIS testing when in-plant personnel identified and verified that the product contained soy, which was not declared on the label

Green Valley Foods, a Devils Lake, N.D. establishment, is recalling approximately 4,062 pounds of frozen meat pizza products due to misbranding and undeclared allergens, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced. The product contains soy, a known allergen not declared on the product label. 

The frozen meat pizza items were produced from September 20, 2022, through September 20, 2023, and may contain lot codes 2632 through 2633. 

The problem was discovered during routine FSIS testing when in-plant personnel identified and verified that the product contained soy, which was not declared on the label.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.

FSIS is concerned that some products may be in consumers’ freezers. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.

FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify that recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to ensure that the product is no longer available to consumers.
