  "account": "The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) has initiated a nationwide recall affecting over 1.5 million pounds of various meat products, including hot dogs, deli meats, bacon, and other items from Kayem Foods Inc. The recall comes after the company discovered that certain ready-to-eat meat and poultry products may have been stored at unsafe temperatures in a warehouse cooler. The issue was first reported on October 1 when a retail customer complained about receiving warm meat products. Upon investigation, Kayem Foods found that several products, including hot dogs, bratwurst, deli meats like ham and turkey, flavored chicken sausages, meatballs, bacon, and more, had been kept at improper temperatures between March 31, 2026, and October 7, 2026. These products, which were sold under various brand names, were shipped across the US, including to Hong Kong. Consumers can identify affected items by checking product labels, UPC numbers, and establishment numbers printed on the packaging. Despite no confirmed illness reports, the USDA advises consumers to discard or return any recalled products.",
