Hillview Meat Processor in Ottawa has recalled raw pork and pork organ products from the marketplace for possible E. coli O157:H7 contamination, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) reports. The recall was triggered by findings of the CFIA, Alberta Health Services, and Alberta Agriculture and Forestry  investigation into an Alberta  outbreak involving at least 14 confirmed E. coli infections earlier this month. porkorgans_406x250The CFIA is continuing that food safety investigation, and says  the recall of other products remains possible. The agency says consumers should not consume and food service establishments, retailers, distributors and manufacturers in Alberta, should not serve, use, or sell these products because they may be contaminated with E. coli O157:H7. The affected raw pork and pork organ products, supplied by Hillview Meat Processor, may have been transformed into raw muscle meat cuts, ground pork, sausages, and raw ready-to-eat products. The products, which may have been sold fresh or frozen, have only been distributed in Alberta. The affected products are known to have been sold or distributed by several Calgary companies up to and including Feb. 16, 2016, including Paolini’s Sausage and Meat Ltd., Trimming Fresh Meats, V&T Meats, Leung Ky Meat and Seafood Ltd., Community Foods, Hungarian Deli, and Rocky’s Sausage Haus. These products may have been sold pre-packaged or clerk-served, with or without a label. Consumers who are unsure if they have the affected products are advised to check with their retailer.
