New Jersey Firm Recalls Breaded Chicken Product For Possible Listeria Contamination

Agency Publication Date: August 27, 2014

Summary

TNUVA USA is recalling approximately 8,316 pounds of 'Mom's Chicken Extra Thin Cutlets' sold in 28.8-oz. (1.8 lb.) blue bags. These frozen breaded chicken breast patties were distributed to a distributor in New Jersey and may still be in consumers' freezers. The recall was initiated because the product may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, which was discovered during routine sampling.

Risk

The product may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, a bacterium that can cause listeriosis, a serious and sometimes fatal infection. While no illnesses have been reported, this infection poses the highest risk to older adults, pregnant women, newborns, and individuals with weakened immune systems.

What You Should Do

Check your freezer for 28.8-oz. (1.8 lb.) bags of 'Mom's Chicken Extra Thin Cutlets' with the UPC 843426005866.
Verify if the package bears the Israeli establishment number '209' within the Israeli mark of inspection and an expiration date of February 18, 2015.
If you have the affected product, do not consume it; dispose of it immediately or contact the manufacturer for guidance.
Thoroughly clean any surfaces, utensils, or refrigerator drawers that may have come into contact with the recalled product to prevent cross-contamination.
If you or a family member experience flu-like symptoms within two months of eating the contaminated food, seek medical care and inform your provider of the exposure.
For questions, contact TNUVA USA Customer Service at 1-844-GOTNUVA (1-844-468-6882) or the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-888-674-6854.
