FSIS issues Public Health Alert for fresh salads and wraps with meat and poultry due to lettuce contaminated with deer feces

The USDA/ FSIS issued a public health alert due to concerns that ready-to-eat (RTE) salads and wraps with meat and poultry may contain contaminated lettuce. The lettuce, which is regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), may be contaminated with deer feces. The RTE salad and wrap products were produced on August 1-2, 2023. The products include (i) 8.65-oz. plastic film packages containing “Chicken Caesar Wrap FRESH SEASONS Kitchen” ; (ii) 7.2-oz. plastic film packages containing “Chicken Caesar Wrap FRESH SEASONS Kitchen” ; (iii) 8.5-oz. plastic clamshell packages containing “Chicken Caesar Salad FRESH SEASONS Kitchen” ; (iv) 8.55-oz. plastic clamshell packages containing “Chef Salad FRESH SEASONS Kitchen”; and (v) 5.85-oz. plastic clamshell packages containing “Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato Salad FRESH SEASONS Kitchen.” The products were shipped to retail locations in Minnesota and Wisconsin. The problem was discovered when an FSIS-regulated establishment notified FSIS that its supplier of FDA-regulated lettuce was conducting a recall because the lettuce may be contaminated with deer feces. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider. @
