SALT LAKE CITY — A Utah company recalls various beef jerky products because of misbranding and undeclared allergen, FDA officials stated Tuesday.

Prime Snax Incorporated, a Salt Lake City company, recalled approximately 90,000 pounds of beef jerky products because of the issue, stated the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service in a press release.
