R&R Provision Company Inc., an Easton, Pa. establishment, is recalling approximately 23,040 pounds of breaded veal products due to misbranding and undeclared allergens, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced. The products contain whey and nonfat milk, known allergens which are not declared on the product label.
The breaded veal items were produced from April 14, 2016 through November 17, 2016. The following products are subject to recall:
- 5.3-OZ. Plastic sealed packages containing 30 pieces of “BREADED VEAL STEAKS” bearing package code RR27-4102.

The products subject to recall bear establishment number “EST. 1081” inside the USDA mark of inspection. These items were shipped to restaurants in Pennsylvania and New Jersey and sold at the establishment’s retail store.
The problem was discovered on December 14, 2016 by FSIS Inspection Program Personnel (IPP) while performing routine labeling verification activities. The establishment received a letter from their breading supplier specifying the incorporation of new ingredients listed above but the change was not carried over onto the final product labels.
There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products.
