Jambalaya and gumbo products recalled over lack of inspection


Wild Cajun Meals LLC, of Garland, TX, is recalling approximately 18,418 pounds of frozen, fully cooked jambalaya and gumbo products that were produced without the benefit of federal inspection, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).

The problem was discovered during routine FSIS surveillance activities when it was determined that the frozen, fully cooked jambalaya and gumbo products did not have the USDA mark of inspection and were produced in an establishment that was not inspected by USDA. FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers’ freezers. 

These items were shipped to retail locations in Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas.

The frozen, fully cooked jambalaya and gumbo items were produced beginning in Sept. 2021 and have various sell by dates.

Recalled products:

  • 32-oz. Plastic containers of “Lady Jambalaya Homemade Jambalaya.”
  • 32-oz. Plastic containers of “Lady Jambalaya Homemade Gumbo.”

The products subject to recall do not bear the USDA mark of inspection because Wild Cajun Meals, LLC is not a federally inspected establishment.

As of the posting of this recall, there have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to the consumption of these products.

Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
