White Castle Frozen Division recalled frozen sandwiches sold in grocery stores due to Listeria monocytogenes

The FDA announced that White Castle had initiated a voluntary recall of several frozen 6 pack cheeseburgers, frozen 6 pack hamburgers, frozen 6 pack jalapeno cheeseburgers, and 16 pack hamburgers, 16 pack cheeseburgers for the possible presence of Listeria monocytogenes. To date, public health officials have not reported any illness associated with these products. A recent sample conducted by a third party laboratory of White Castel’s frozen sandwiches from one manufacturing facility showed a presence of Listeria monocytogenes stopping any shipment of the product to customers. All impacted production runs have been identified for destruction. White Castle has maintained complete control of all products produced at the facility since the first indication of a problem. Since the recall, White Castle established intensive sanitation and cleaning with guidance from outside food safety experts, is aggressively elevating already strong food safety testing and manufacturing guidelines, and is conducting comprehensive testing to confirm no presence of Listeria in the facility. @ https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-market-withdrawals-safety-alerts/white-castle-frozen-food-division-announces-voluntary-recall-limited-production-frozen-sandwiches
