The product subject to recall bears establishment number “EST. 15818A” inside the USDA mark of inspection. This foodservice item was shipped to hotels, restaurants and institutions nationwide.

The problem was discovered after the firm received food service customer complaints that the product labeled as vegetable beef and barley condensed soup contained minestrone condensed soup.

FSIS is concerned that some product may be in the freezers of hotels, restaurants and institutions. These businesses are urged not to serve the product. This product should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
