“Grand PaPas Pork Rinds Recall: Uninspected Meat Products.” GovInfoNow, updated October 12, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/1275414-grand-papa-s-inc-recalls-fried-pork-skin-products-produced. Based on USDA FSIS recall #044-2015 (https://www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls-alerts/grand-papas-inc--recalls-fried-pork-skin-products-produced-without-benefit).

Why it’s dangerous

The products were produced without the benefit of federal inspection, which means they did not undergo the standard safety checks required for meat products. This lack of oversight creates a potential risk for foodborne illness or contamination that would normally be caught during inspection.

Who’s affected

Consumers who purchased Grand PaPas Pork Rinds from a retail location in Michigan between late February and mid-March 2015. While no adverse reactions have been reported, anyone concerned about consumption should contact a healthcare provider.

How to tell if you have this one

Look for 2 oz. bags of Grand PaPas Pork Rinds (original, Barbecue, or Hot & Spicy flavors) with the establishment number EST. 19606 inside the USDA mark of inspection on the label. The products were produced on February 26, 2015, and packaged on February 27, 2015.
