Beef jerky products recalled over misbranding issue

The beef jerky products may contain monosodium glutamate (MSG) that is not declared on the finished product labels.

The ready-to-eat teriyaki beef jerky items were packaged and produced on June 7, 2018.

The items were shipped to distribution centers in Utah and North Carolina.          

The problem was discovered on July 5, 2018 by the firm during a routine label review.  Specifically, the firm produced “Old Fashioned Silver Dollar Beef Jerky” products with case code 81471, and inadvertently labeled the products within the case with the “Teriyaki Beef Jerky” label. The “Old Fashioned Silver Dollar Beef Jerky” contains monosodium glutamate (MSG), but the Teriyaki Beef Jerky does not.
