USDA’s ministry of truth

USDA has entered into some serious 1984-style rhetorical weirdness.

The PR-types at the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) wrote that an Ohio firm had recalled ready-to-eat beef and pork products produced “without benefit of federal inspection.”

So what is it called when outbreaks of salmonella or E. coli are linked to meat products that had the benefit of inspection?

E-Z Shop Kitchens, Inc., a Fremont, Ohio, establishment, is recalling an undetermined amount of ready-to-eat, seasoned beef and shredded pork products that were sold for institutional and/or individual consumer use and are listed below.

The problem was discovered by FSIS personnel when following up on a complaint and is the subject of an on-going investigation. FSIS may take additional regulatory action based on the results of this investigation.

FSIS has received no reports of illness due to consumption of these products.
