Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Plain-English summary

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued a public health alert for meat and poultry products containing FDA-regulated dairy products. These dairy ingredients were recalled by Rizo-Lopez Foods due to concerns that they may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. The alert specifically identifies SK Food Group products, including "amazon kitchen, CHICKEN CHILI VERDE burrito with rice, black beans & monterey jack" in 10.53-oz. individual wax paper packages with specific Julian dates.

The issue was identified when establishments notified FSIS that they used the potentially contaminated dairy products to produce the poultry items. FSIS states that there have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to the consumption of these products. However, consumption of food contaminated with L. monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, a serious infection that primarily affects older adults, persons with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women and their newborns.

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. Retailers are also urged not to serve or sell these products. Consumers with questions can contact the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 888-MPHotline (888-674-6854) or via email at [email protected].
