A prosciutto recall would have Tony Soprano rolling in his grave.

ConSup North America Incorporated, a New Jersey-based firm, is recalling close to 100,000 pounds of sliced Stockmeyer prosciutto produced in Germany for “not being inspected properly.”

Here's what you need to know.

What states are Stockmeyer products sold in?

Retailers across the country include stores in:

  • Texas

  • California

  • Connecticut

  • Florida

  • Illinois

  • Pennsylvania

  • Virginia

  • Washington

Why is there a prosciutto recall?

The issue was revealed after Germany’s Federal Office of Consumer Protection and Food Safety notified USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service that a German producer had shipped the products without proper inspection. As of now, there are no confirmed reports of a reaction to eating Stockmeyer prosciutto, but the USDA recommended consumers should toss any current stock of this brand of prosciutto out.

“Consumers who have purchased this product are urged not to consume it. This product should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase,” the notice reads.
