Celery sticks recalled in 30 states after testing finds Listeria
No illnesses have been reported
Duda Farm Fresh Foods, Inc., based in Oxnard, CA, is recalling 1,587 cases of its 4 in/1.6 oz Marketside Celery Sticks sold at Walmart stores across 30 states because of potential contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. The recall was prompted by a random sampling conducted by the Georgia Department of Agriculture, which detected Listeria monocytogenes in one of multiple samples taken from a Georgia store. Although the product is past its Best if Used by Date and is no longer available in stores, consumers may have frozen the celery sticks for later use.
The recalled product was distributed to stores in Alabama, California, Colorado, District of Columbia, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia and Wyoming.
Consumers who have the recalled product, including any stored in freezers, are urged not to consume it and should discard it immediately.
