Eby-Brown is recalling specific lots of Turkey & Cheese Sandwiches because a customer reported the product was molding before the expiration date.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, which typically involves a low probability of serious adverse health consequences. The specific hazard is mold growth, which is a quality issue rather than a high-risk pathogen or structural defect.
