Mann Packing Recalls Vegetable Medley Due to Listeria Risk

Mann Packing Company is recalling Signature Farms Vegetable Medley products because CFIA notified FDA of a positive Listeria monocytogenes result.

What this means for you

Highest-severity recall. Risk of serious injury or death is documented or strongly suspected. Stop using the product now and follow the agency's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The agency classification is FDA Class I, which mandates a minimum score of 4. Additionally, the presence of Listeria monocytogenes, a high-risk pathogen, in a ready-to-eat food product typically warrants the highest severity rating due to the potential for serious health consequences.
