RECALL: Waffle Products Due to the Potential for Listeria

TreeHouse Foods, Inc. is voluntarily recalling certain frozen waffle products due to the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.

From the FDA:

Listeria monocytogenes is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Listeria monocytogenes infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.

The recalled products were distributed throughout the United States and Canada and packed in various formats under the brand names listed HERE.

Consumers and retailers can identify the UPC on the back of the carton, and the Lot Code and Best By Date for these products on the end of the carton.

There have been no confirmed reports of illness linked to the recalled products to date. Anyone concerned about an illness should contact a healthcare provider.

This issue was discovered through routine testing at the manufacturing facility.

Consumers should check their freezers for any of the products listed HERE and dispose of them or return the recalled product to the place of purchase for credit.

Consumers with questions may contact the company at 800-596-2903.
