Plain-English summary

Olli Salumeria Americana, an establishment in Oceanside, California, is recalling approximately 3,946 pounds of ready-to-eat meat products that may be adulterated with Listeria monocytogenes. The recall includes specific 6 oz. and 175 gram packages of Gusto and Olli brand salami and pepperoni products, all of which were packaged on January 19, 2018, and bear establishment number M-45334.

The recall was initiated after the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) performed routine Listeria monocytogenes sampling. The affected products were shipped to retail locations nationwide and exported to Canada. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to the consumption of these products.

Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them and should throw them away or return them to the place of purchase. Listeria monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, a serious infection that primarily affects older adults, persons with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women. Persons in these higher-risk categories who experience flu-like symptoms within two months after eating contaminated food should seek medical care.
