Pepsin Full Strength Powder recall

Recalled by American Laboratories, LLC

The product, as the FDA describes it: Pepsin Full Strength Powder, 50 kg, Item #5000545, American Laboratories 5036 South 33rd Street, Omaha, Nebraska 68107. Packed in double poly-lined cardboard drums or boxes.

Why it was recalled

Potential Salmonella contamination.

The FDA has since closed this recall out, which means the company finished removing the product from sale. It is kept here because a closed recall still matters to anyone holding a package bought before it ended.

What to do if you have it

Nothing about pepsin full strength powder will look or smell wrong, because the organisms behind this kind of recall leave no trace you can see or taste. Do not cook it to make it safe and do not sample it. Throw it out or return it, then wash anything it touched, including the shelf it sat on and the container beside it.

How to tell whether your package is one of them

A recall covers particular production runs, not everything the company makes, so the codes decide it. These are the ones the FDA published. Match them against what is printed on your package, usually near the best-before date.

Manufacturing code: 294 Lot Code: 29460025 Reevaluation date: January 20, 2029
