The US Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) said that Ruiz Foods, a Denison, Texas establishment, has recalled approximately 115,700 pounds of a ready-to-eat (RTE) beef product , that may be contaminated with Salmonella. The packages of beef product contain as an ingredient the specific Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein (HVP).

The products subject to recall include: 8.4 ounce boxes of Tornados Ranchero Beef & Cheese.' Each box contains 3 Tornados. 'Est. 17523A' and code numbers '09357', '10023', '10028', '10030'. '10031' or '10032' are ink jetted on the side panel.

The RTE product was produced on December 23, 2010, January 23, 2010, January 28, 2010, January 30, 2010, January 31, 2010, and February 1, 2010.

Ruiz Foods distributes RTE beef product nationwide to retail and food service establishments. Only those products distributed for retail sale are subject to recall. The agency has received no reports of illnesses associated with the consumption of these products.

FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers.
