MEMORANDUM FOR RECORD

SUBJECT: Conagra Brands Recalls Canned Meat and Poultry Products Due to Possible Packaging Defect

1. REFERENCE: DHA-MSR 6025.01/AR 40-660/ DLAR 6025.01/NAVSUPINST 10110.8D/AFI 48-

161_IP/MCO 10110.38D, DOD Hazardous Food & Nonprescription Drug Recall System, 6 September

2018.

2. COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT: Conagra Brands, Inc., a Fort Madison, Iowa establishment, is

recalling approximately 2,581,816 pounds of canned meat and poultry products due to a packaging defect

that may cause the products to become contaminated without showing any outward signs of

contamination, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS)

announced today.

The meat and poultry products were produced between December 12, 2022, and January 13, 2023. 

The problem was discovered when the establishment notified FSIS after observing spoiled and/or leaking 

cans from multiple production dates at the establishment’s warehouse.

Subsequent investigation by the establishment determined that the cans subject to recall may have been 

damaged in a manner that is not readily apparent to consumers, which may allow foodborne pathogens to 

enter the cans.

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 product may be on retail shelves or in consumers’ pantries. 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 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. When available, the retail distribution lists will be posted on the FSIS 

website at www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls. 

3. PRODUCTS AFFECTED: The products subject to recall bear establishment number “P4247” on the

product cans. These items were shipped to retail locations nationwide. The meat and poultry products

were produced between December 12, 2022, and January 13, 2023.
