The following products are subject to recall: [ View Labels (PDF Only)] 5,248 lbs. of 7.1 oz. trays with clear film in cardboard box packages containing Waffles, Turkey Sausage Patty with Sliced Apple Seasoned w/Brown Sugar and Cinnamon on the label, lot codes of 2016355, 2016363, 2016364 and 2016362, and Use By dates of 06/21/18, 06/28/18, 06/29/18 and 06/30/18. The products subject to recall bear establishment number P-51269 inside the USDA mark of inspection. These items were shipped to institutions in Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Ohio, South Carolina and Tennessee. The problem was discovered on May 19, 2017 when Golden Gourmet was notified by their supplier that the waffles used in the waffle and turkey sausage products were recalled due to potential Lm contamination. Golden Gourmet notified FSIS on May 23, 2017. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. 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. Less commonly, persons outside these risk groups are affected. Listeriosis can cause fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance and convulsions sometimes preceded by diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms. An invasive infection spreads beyond the gastrointestinal tract. In pregnant women, the infection can cause miscarriages, stillbirths, premature delivery or life-threatening infection of the newborn. In addition, serious and sometimes fatal infections in older adults and persons with weakened immune systems. Listeriosis is treated with antibiotics. Persons in the higher-risk categories who experience flu-like symptoms within two months after eating contaminated food should seek medical care and tell the health care provider about eating the contaminated food. FSIS and the company are concerned that some product may be frozen and in consumers' freezers. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase. FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers. When available, the retail distribution list(s) will be posted on the FSIS website at www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls . Media and consumers with questions regarding the recall can contact Sherry Cannon, office manager, at (229) 389-2392.
