Oct 26, 2013, 3:19 PM
MILWAUKEE (AP) – Milwaukee-based Garden-Fresh Foods Inc. is recalling 50 more tons of chicken and ham products over concerns of possible listeria contamination, its third recall in two months.
The latest recall was announced Friday by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Officials were concerned the food was possibly contaminated with listeria, which can lead to miscarriages in pregnant women and serious illness for those with weakened immune systems.
There have been no reports of illnesses.
The products include several varieties of ham and chicken salads, among other things, sold under the Garden-Fresh, Grandpa’s, Archer Farms and D’Amico & Sons brand names.
A message left Saturday with the company wasn’t immediately returned. Garden-Fresh first recalled more than 9 tons of food on Sept. 25, and recalled an additional 6,700 pounds this month.
