Ohio Firm Recalls Slaw Due to Lack of Established Process Controls

My Wife’s Slaw is voluntarily recalling its Original and Jalapeno Heat flavored coleslaw sold in 8 oz and 16 oz glass mason jars. The products included in this recall are adulterated because they were produced without the benefit of inspection and the safety parameters were not able to be verified.

Comment - The company was not measuring import food safety parameters.  Most critical for this would be pH.  Also fill temperature or post-processing temperature depending on how it was processed.
