Wholesale distributor ConSup North America is recalling approximately 42.9 tons (85,984 lb) of ready-to-eat sliced prosciutto ham produced in Germany without the benefit of equivalent inspection, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).
These items were shipped under the Stockmeyer brand to retail locations in California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, and Washington. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products.
The problem was discovered when Germany’s Federal Office of Consumer Protection and Food Safety notified FSIS that the producer of the prosciutto, H. Klümper in Germany, manufactured a portion of the identified lots without the benefit of equivalent inspection and exported them to the U.S. for distribution.
The sliced prosciutto was produced on various dates from Sept. 25, 2023, through March 6, 2024. Here are the packaging identifiers regarding the recall:
5.29-oz. plastic packages containing “Stockmeyer PROSCIUTTO Product of GERMANY” with lot codes 09118-3A, 09118-3B, 09120-3A, 09120-3B, 13133-3A, 13133-3B, 13104-3A, 13104-3B, 13105-3A, 13105-3B, 13109-3A and 13109-3B and “BEST BEFORE:” dates of 4/28/2024, 5/26/2024, 7/7/2024, 8/4/2024, 8/11/2024 and 10/7/2024.USDA
