Lot codes, dates and UPCs
A recall covers only these codes. Compare them with the lot number, best-by date or UPC printed on your package.
Check the codes, then return or discard. Class II means eating it may cause temporary or reversible health problems. If your package matches the recalled codes, do not eat it - return it to the store or throw it away. FDA lists this recall as terminated: the company has finished removing the product, so it should no longer be on shelves - but it can still be in a freezer or pantry.
Reason Routine analysis by consignee found one lot of 12 positive for Listeria monocytogenes. Original microbiological analysis conducted in 2016, by Hanover found all lots negative for Listeria monocytogenes.
