Randalls, Tom Thumb and Albertsons stores in Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas Voluntarily Recall 'Ready. Chef. Go!' Seafood Meal Bags in Cooperation with Voluntary Recall by Mann Packing Due to Possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination

FORT WORTH, Texas, Oct. 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- In cooperation with the Mann Packing recall of minimally processed vegetable products due to possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination, Randalls, Tom Thumb and Albertsons stores in Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas only are voluntarily recalling Ready. Chef. Go! seafood meal bags. The bags include vegetables that are subject to the Mann Packing recall.

Listeria monocytogenes is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.

This recall impacts only the Ready. Chef. Go! products listed below with Sell Thru Dates up to and including 10-22-17 (October 22, 2017). The products are packaged in clear cooking bags and are sold from refrigerated cases in the meat/seafood department or from mobile refrigerated merchandise cases. The UPC code and Sell Thru Date can be found on the store scale label.

No illnesses or injuries have been reported in connection with the Mann Packing. The Ready. Chef. Go! seafood meal bags have been recalled out of an abundance of caution.

Customers who purchased the recalled product should discard or return it for a full refund. Customers who have questions about the recall can contact Mann Packing on their 24-hour consumer line at 888-470-2681 or visit veggiesmadeeasy.com/products. Customers can also contact Albertsons Companies at 1-877-723-3929 anytime.
