Great American Marketing Company recalls ready to eat products because of possible health risk

Great American Marketing Company Recalls Ready To Eat Products Because of Possible Health Risk
April 12, 2019

Great American Marketing Company of Houston, Texas is recalling Ready to Eat Sandwiches, Wraps and Salads because they have the potential to be contaminated with LISTERIA MONOCYTOGENES, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail and elderly people and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, Listeria Infection can cause miscarriages and still births among pregnant women.

These recalled RTE products include the following: CAESAR SALAD, CHEF SALAD, CLUB WRAP, CHICKEN CAESAR WRAP, DELI CUT HAM AND AMERICAN, DELI CUT TURKEY, CHICKEN SALAD, JALAPENO PIMENTO CHEESE, ITALIAN 6" SUB, TURKEY PEPPER JACK 6" SUB, TURKEY AND SWISS, HAM AND CHEDDAR SANDWICH, are distributed in Texas and sold in Valero Corner Stores/Circle K Stores under Corner Store Market Label in different packaging shapes and sizes with the following: LOT NUMBERS (SELL BY DATE): 040819, 040919, 041119, 041319, 041419, 041519, 041619, 041819 and 042019. SAMPLE LABEL AND SELL BY DATE BELOW:

SELL BY
042019

No illnesses have been reported to date in connection with this problem. This recall is made in abundance of precaution.

The potential for contamination was noted after testing by FDA revealed the presence of Listeria Monocytogenes in the production line equipment.

The production of these products has been suspended while FDA, USDA and the Company continue to remediate the production line and investigate the source of the problem.

Consumers who may have purchased any of the products with the lot numbers mentioned are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Consumers with questions may contact the company at 713-682-6471 from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM CDT.
