502 Boundary Blvd. Recalls Ham According to an announcement from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), 502 Boundary Blvd. Inc. is recalling 8,694 pounds of ham products due to possible contamination. The recalled ham may contain extraneous materials such as rubber, FSIS said. 502 Boundary Blvd., based in Algona, Washington, was formerly known as Fletcher’s Fine Foods Ltd.
The ham was produced and packaged by Sofina Foods in London. It was exported to the United States on July 21, 2016. Only the US received this product, which is a boneless, ready-to-eat ham item produced on July 18, 2016. The ham came in a 6.02-lb vacuum-sealed package. It was labeled “Fletcher’s Fine Foods CLASSICS Black Forest Brand Ham with Natural Juices.”
