Two popular ham salad products have been recalled due to possible listeria contamination in one of the ingredients, breadcrumbs, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service.
Newly Weds Foods announced it is recalling Reser’s Fine Foods Ham Salad and Molly’s Kitchen Ham Salad, the products in question.
“The problem was discovered when Reser’s Fine Foods, Inc., a Topeka, Kansas, establishment, determined that they used FDA-regulated breadcrumb products subject to an FDA recall because the breadcrumbs may be contaminated with [listeria monocytogenes],” the agency said in a press release.
It’s just the latest recall announcement tied to Reser’s Fine Foods products made with potentially tainted bread crumbs.
Albertsons recently announced a pair of recalls linked to tuna salad products made with breadcrumbs. The states included in those announcements were Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana and Oklahoma.
Thus far, there have been no confirmed reports of anyone getting ill from consuming the products.
Anybody who consumes food contaminated with listeria is at risk of listeriosis, a serious infection that affects older adults, people with weakened immune systems, pregnant women and their babies.
