Listeria has made headlines for months, prompting recalls of millions of pounds of deli meat and ready-to-eat meat products. Now, the potentially fatal organism is showing up in frozen waffles.
TreeHouse Foods, which makes waffles sold under the Kodiak, Good & Gather, and many more popular brands, is voluntarily recalling nearly 700 different waffle products across dozens of brands due to potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination. The waffles were sold at Publix, Aldo, Food Lion, Walmart, and Target, among other retailers nationwide, according to an announcement from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
People with recalled waffles should throw them away or return them to the store where they were purchased for a credit, the announcement says. And consumers with further questions may reach out to TreeHouse Foods at 800-596-2903, Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. CST. (You can see the full list of recalled products here.)
