Chicken Alfredo, Cereal, and Chocolate Almonds Pulled Over Health Risks

The week of June 16 saw three major recalls, including one linked to a deadly Listeria outbreak.

Check your fridge and pantry for the following items.

On Tuesday, chicken fettuccine alfredo sold at Kroger and Walmart was recalled nationwide over potential Listeria contamination.

The ready-to-eat products were linked to a multistate Listeria outbreak that sickened 17 people, including three deaths and one pregnancy loss.

Check your fridge for these products, toss or return them, and monitor for signs of Listeria.

The recall includes three ready-to-eat products made by FreshRealm:

• 32.8-oz. tray packages containing “MARKETSIDE GRILLED CHICKEN ALFREDO WITH FETTUCCINE Tender Pasta with Creamy Alfredo Sauce, White Meat Chicken and Shaved Parmesan Cheese” with best-by date 06/27/25 or prior.

In late May, 5,376 boxes of Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds cereal were recalled in two states due to potential metal contamination.

Last Thursday, the FDA gave the recall the second-highest risk level, as foreign objects in food pose a safety hazard.

Post Consumer Brands told Health that the recalled cereal was only sent to Sam’s Club locations and was pulled from stock before reaching store shelves.

If you shop at Sam’s Club, you may still want to double-check your cereal, and toss or return any boxes of the recalled Honey Bunches of Oats.

Affected States

Last Friday, Meijer, a Midwest grocery chain, recalled a select number of Frederik’s Dark Chocolate Almonds sold in stores in six states because of an undeclared allergen.

The packs may contain dark chocolate-covered cashews.

People with an allergy or sensitivity to cashews should not eat the recalled nuts, as doing so may cause a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction. Instead, throw out or return the product to Meijer for a full refund.

If you can consume cashews, the recalled chocolate-covered almonds are otherwise safe to eat.
