The products listed were produced between July 1, 2011 and March 29, 2013 then distributed for retail or restaurant sale nationwide according to the FSIS. The FSIS is worried that some products may currently be present in household freezers.
"While Rich Products is unaware of any illnesses associated with the products included in the expanded recall, its unwavering safety commitment to its customers caused it to take this action," reads the company's website.
The company's official website shows that the decision to start the recall was a result of the Centers for Disease Control report that showed there was a total of 24 cases of E. coli reported in 15 different states according to NBC News.
FSIS conducts routine recall effectiveness checks to make sure the proper steps are taken to verify all products aren't available to consumers. Once available, the retail distribution list will be posted here on the FSIS website.
"When it became apparent to us that, despite the expertise of the USDA, the FDA, the scientific community and our own experts, identification of a specific cause was not going to be a simple or short process, we decided to act proactively to expand the recall," Bill Gisel, the company's current president and chief executive officer, said in a statement.
