BrucePac recalls 10 million pounds of ready-to-eat meat: See list of 75 products affected
View Date:2024-12-23 11:35:54
Pre-cooked meat producer BrucePac has released the list of 75 affected products in a nearly 10 million-pound recall announced by the U.S. Department of Agriculture on Wednesday.
According to the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) notice, roughly 9,986,245 pounds of product are subject to the recall after routine testing found evidence of Listeria monocytogenes on BrucePac ready-to-eat poultry. The presence of L. monocytogenes can cause a listeriosis infection if adulterated foods are consumed.
Affected products were shipped to establishments and distributors nationwide, including restaurants and other food institutions. Affected foods have production dates as late as Oct. 8, meaning they are likely still in consumers' fridges or freezers and available on shelves, in restaurants and at other establishments, FSIS warned.
