223K Pounds of RTE Chicken Salad Recalled Over Listeria

Boston Salads and Provisions Company, Inc., a Boston-based firm, is recalling approximately 222,959 pounds of ready-to-eat chicken salad products because they may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced Oct. 24.
The recall involves RTE cranberry walnut chicken salad, white chicken salad, chicken salad, chicken Caesar salad and tropical cranberry walnut salad sold under the brand names Boston Salads, Dietz & Watson, Market Source, Northern Haserot, Price Chopper and Rachael's Gourmet.
The products were produced between Aug. 23, 2013, and Oct. 14, 2013, and shipped to wholesalers for further distribution to retail locations in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Case labels or packaging may bear the sell by dates ranging from “9/13/2013" through “11/4/2013" as well as the establishment number “P-17999" inside the USDA mark of inspection. Although product included in this recall may be expired, FSIS is concerned that some product may be frozen in consumer or retail freezers.
