Plain-English summary

Daily's Premium Meats, LLC, a Salt Lake City, Utah establishment, is recalling approximately 170 pounds of ready-to-eat Regular Ends Precooked Bacon products. The recall was initiated because the products may be adulterated with Listeria monocytogenes. The specific items subject to recall are 17 cases of 2-5 lbs. packages in cardboard boxes, containing 48108 Regular Ends Precooked Bacon with a net weight of 10 lbs. (2/5 lbs. packages). These products bear establishment number EST. 6133 inside the USDA mark of inspection, have a packaging date of 9/22/16, and a use-by date of 6/19/17.

The issue was identified during the company's routine internal third-party testing when a product sample tested positive for Listeria monocytogenes. The affected items were shipped to Associated Foods retail locations in Idaho and Utah. There have been no confirmed reports of illness or 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. FSIS and the company are concerned that some product may be frozen and in consumers' freezers. Persons in higher-risk categories, such as older adults, persons with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women, who experience flu-like symptoms within two months after eating contaminated food should seek medical care and inform their provider about the potential exposure.
