Border inspection lapse prompts recall of over 12,000 pounds of Canadian bacon

The US Department of Agriculture issued a Class I recall for more than 12,000 pounds of Canadian-imported Royale Natural Applewood Smoked uncured bacon and Top Valu uncured hardwood smoked bacon from Maple Leaf Foods after regulators found the products never underwent import reinspection into the United States. The bacon, packaged in 12-ounce vacuum packs, was distributed to stores in Idaho, Oregon and Washington. No illnesses have been reported. Consumers should discard the affected packages or return them to retailers. Maple Leaf Foods attributes the issue to border paperwork rather than product safety and noted the recall stems from a routine inspection finding a lack of required reinspection.

Bacon Cooked Right: Why Cast Iron Falls Short and What to Use Instead

Bacon Cooked Right: Why Cast Iron Falls Short and What to Use Instead

A culinary expert says cast iron’s slow heat up and strong heat retention lead to uneven bacon rendering, with some areas overdoing it and others underdone. For small batches, use heavy stainless or nonstick pans for better control; for larger quantities, the oven on sheet pans provides even cooking, minimal splatter, and repeatable results without babysitting the pan.

Study Finds Tapeworms in Brain of Man with Migraines Linked to Partially Cooked Bacon

A man suffering from severe migraines was found to have tapeworm larvae in his brain, likely caused by consuming undercooked bacon. The 52-year-old man had a history of chronic migraines and type-2 diabetes, and tests revealed multiple cysts in his brain. After positive results for neurocysticercosis, likely transmitted through improper handwashing after contracting taeniasis from undercooked pork, he was successfully treated with medication. The CDC warns that consuming undercooked and infected pork can lead to tapeworm infection, with symptoms including headache, epilepsy, dizziness, and stroke.

The truth about uncured bacon's health benefits.
health3 years ago

The truth about uncured bacon's health benefits.

The labels "cured" and "uncured" on bacon and other processed meats can be misleading. Both cured and uncured bacon are preserved, and the use of these labels is a result of labeling regulations. "Uncured" bacon may still contain similar amounts of nitrites and nitrates as "cured" bacon. Nitrites and nitrates, whether synthetic or from natural sources, can form nitrosamines in the body, which may increase the risk of certain cancers. Processed meat intake has also been linked to an increased risk of Type 2 diabetes and heart disease. While vegetables like celery contain nitrates and nitrites, their conversion to nitrosamines is less likely due to the low protein content. It is recommended to consume processed meats in moderation.
