SANTA ANA — Fast-food restaurant Lee's Sandwiches has recalled 213,000 pounds of meat because it bore unauthorized United States Department of Agriculture marks of inspection, despite having not been inspected properly.

There have been no reports of adverse reactions to eating any of the products.

USDA officials say the biggest quantities of recalled meat products were 62,000 pounds of "pork pate chaud," 56,000 pounds of "chicken pate chaud," 55,000 pounds of "banh bao pork and egg steamed bun," 23,000 pounds of "sliced oil browned turkey" and 15,000 pounds of "bahn boa trung cut pork and quail egg steamed bun."

The San Jose-based chain has locations all over the Bay Area including San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose.
