Reason for recall
The products have the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes based on FDA sampling and analysis. During an FDA inspection, an environmental sample (973983) was collected and submitted to NRL for analysis. NRL's analysis revealed 37 out of 99 subs were positive for L. monocytogenes including both Zone 1 and Zone 2 locations.
Listeria monocytogenes can grow at refrigerator temperatures. Infection is most dangerous for pregnant women, newborns, older adults and people with weakened immune systems. Symptoms can appear up to 70 days after eating contaminated food.
