Ikea lasagna recall

Ikea lasagna recall, the IKEA lasagna recall is making headline news this weekend. On April 6, Huffington Post reported that the company has recalled 17,000 portions of their new moose lasagna because traces of pork were found. While one might think that should be the other way around -- the "moose" was actually the part that was "okay."

"Moose meat is common in Sweden though it's not typically used in lasagna. Ikea has previously recalled meatballs and other meat products sold in its cafeterias and frozen foods sections after tests showed they contained traces of horsemeat (sic)," Huffington Post reported.

The IKEA lasagna recall affects many of its stores in Europe. A spokesperson said that the lasagna had only been available for a month and while pork isn't necessarily harmful, the company has an obligation to keep their consumers aware of what is in their food products. A lot of people don't eat pork for personal reasons and some can't eat pork for religious reasons.

For people in The States, this recall might seem odd, mainly because most U.S. citizens don't eat moose meat and might even be grossed out if it was found in meat here. However, this is pretty serious in Europe and IKEA is doing the right thing by pulling the lasagna off store shelves.

The IKEA lasagna recall was put into place after the lasagna was tested in Belgium and the results showed hat the lasagna contained 1.6% pork.
