Potato, Tuna & Macaroni Salads Recalled Due To Listeria Risk
DETROIT (WWJ) - Reser's Fine Foods is recalling 19 varieties of refrigerated salads sold in 29 states — including Michigan – because they may be contaminated with dangerous bacteria.
The company says it was notified by one of its ingredient suppliers that Listeria monocytogenes may be present in one lot of onions that was used in the potato salads, macaroni salads and tuna salads.
The retail products were sold in plastic containers between March 22 and April 10 of this year. Each is marked with a Use By Date followed by a #10 at the end of the line of printing.

Listeria is a bacteria that can cause symptoms such as fever, headache, nausea, diarrhea and abdominal pain. Those most affected are the very young, the elderly, pregnant women and people with a weakened immune system.
Reser's Fine Foods said no illnesses have yet been reported in connection with the products — but anyone who has any of these salads in their homes should throw them out or return them to the store of purchase for a refund.
