Walmart in U.S. Also Recalls El Monterey Taquitos
El Monterey Taquitos and Tornados were recalled in Canada a few days ago because they sourced a “small quantity” of beef from Rancho Feeding Corporation. That company processed diseased and unsound animals without federal inspection so it is considered unwholesome and adulterated. Now Walmart is recalling some Taquitos that were sold in the U.S. that may contain some Rancho beef.
The recalled products are El Monterey Steak and Cheese Flour Taquitos in the 28 count size. The UPC number is 071007 40389 7 and best if used by dates are 05/05/2014, 05/17/2014, 05/20/2014, 05/22/2014, 06/07/2014, 10/08/2014, 10/11/2014, 10/16/2014, 10/21/2014, and 12/12/2014.
