Company Recalls Nearly 10 Million Pounds Of Meat And Poultry Dishes For Listeria Contamination – KXL

(Associated Press) – A company is recalling nearly 10 million pounds of meat and poultry made at an Oklahoma plant because the products may be contaminated with listeria bacteria.

BrucePac recalled the ready-to-eat products this week after U.S. Agriculture Department officials detected listeria in foods during routine testing.

The foods were made at the company’s plant in Durant, Oklahoma, between June 19 and Oct. 8 and shipped to restaurants, food service vendors and other sites nationwide.

Eating foods contaminated with listeria can cause serious illness and death.
