Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Avanza Pasta, LLC is recalling approximately 9,847 pounds of various meat and poultry ravioli and tortellini products. These items were produced between October 5, 2019, and March 12, 2021, without the benefit of federal inspection. The products were sold under various brand names including AMBROSINO'S, FRANKIE'S DELI, Gene's, and others in 16-oz bags and 5-lb bags. Consumers should return these products to the place of purchase for a refund or throw them away.
