Important Update: Frozen Waffles Recalled Due To Listeria Threat
WAFFLE RECALL
I feel like it's unsafe to eat anything anymore. One more product that I buy quite often is frozen waffles; and unfortunately, the brands that I buy are being affected by one of the latest Listeria recalls.
TreeHouse Foods is voluntarily recalling frozen waffle products that are sold in the United States and Canada. The Waffle products are sold at major supermarkets including Target, Coborn's, Walmart, and more.
AFFECTED BRANDS
The brands affected by this recall include Kodiak Cakes, which is a protein waffle labeled as Power Waffles. They come in a variety of flavors as well.
Other well-known Waffles are Simple Truth and Foodhold.
The recall stems from testing that was completed at one of their manufacturing facilities which identified a 'potential' listeria contamination. No confirmed reports of illness are linked to any frozen waffles at this point.
Listeria can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy individuals may suffer short-term symptoms that include:
High fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea.
Listeria monocytogenes infection can also cause miscarriages and stillbirths.
It is recommended that consumers check their freezers for any of the recalled products and either throw the products away, or bring them back to the location where they were purchased for a refund.
There are many brands affected. The following is a list of products affected by the recall.
