USDA Recalls 12,000 Pounds of Canadian Bacon at Highest Risk Level
The bacon, which did not undergo required import inspection, was offered for sale in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. Officials urged consumers who purchased the products to destroy or return them.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) urgently recalled thousands of pounds of bacon of Canadian origin sold in three western states. The recall was classified at the highest risk level because the products did not undergo mandatory U.S. import inspections.
FSIS decided to withdraw from the market more than 12,000 pounds of smoked bacon produced by Illinois-based Maple Leaf Foods. The products in question had been distributed in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington.
The department classified the recall as 'Class I' following the negligence detected during routine inspections. FSIS uses this class for situations where consumption has a reasonable probability of causing serious health problems or death. No illnesses linked to the bacon have been reported so far.
The recalled bacon was produced on June 9, 10, 12, 13, and 15, 2026. The products sold under two different brands are as follows:
- 12-ounce vacuum-sealed package of "Royale Natural Applewood Smoked ALL NATURAL Uncured Bacon Product of Canada". The package bears "SEP 01 2026" and "SEP 07 2026" use-by dates.
- 12-ounce vacuum-sealed package of "TOP VALU Uncured Hardwood Smoked Bacon PRODUCT OF CANADA". The package bears "SEP 01 2026", "SEP 02 2026", "SEP 04 2026", "SEP 05 2026", and "SEP 07 2026" use-by dates.
Both products bear the Canadian establishment number "EST. 1" and the master cartons have the health certificate number "2026-S732971612".
FSIS advised consumers who purchased these products to destroy the bacon or return it to the store where they bought it. For food safety questions, FSIS stated that emails can be sent to MPHotline@usda.gov.
