“Recall: Leader Slaughterhouse Uninspected Veal Carcasses.” GovInfoNow, updated October 12, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/1275428-leader-slaughterhouse-llc-recalls-veal-carcasses-produced-without-full-benefit. Based on USDA FSIS recall #060-2015 (https://www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls-alerts/leader-slaughterhouse-llc-recalls-veal-carcasses-produced-without-full-benefit).
Why it’s dangerous
The meat was produced without the full benefit of federal inspection, meaning its safety and wholesomeness were not verified by USDA officials during production. This lack of oversight creates a risk that the product could be contaminated or unsafe for consumption, even though no specific illness has been linked to it yet.
Who’s affected
Customers who picked up veal carcasses directly from the Leader Slaughterhouse facility in Imler, Pennsylvania, and transported them to locations in Pennsylvania and New York. While no illnesses have been reported, anyone concerned about potential health effects should contact a healthcare provider.
How to tell if you have this one
Look for 6 individual veal carcasses, each weighing approximately 300 pounds and cut into quarters. The key identifier is the absence of the USDA mark of inspection on the product. These were produced specifically on April 10, 2015.
