RTE Simply fresh MARKET CHICKEN SALAD Apples & Walnuts - Health Alert due to Listeria

Atlanta, Georgia, United States

The FSIS is issuing a public health alert for ready-to-eat (RTE) chicken salad products produced by Simply Fresh Market due to concerns that the product may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. A recall was not requested because the known affected product is no longer available in commerce for consumers to purchase. This product was shipped to three local markets in Atlanta, Ga.

The product subject to the public health alert is:
- 8-oz and 16-oz. deli hinged containers of “simply fresh MARKET CHICKEN SALAD Apples & Walnuts” with a sell-by date of “1/25” printed on the label.

The RTE chicken salad with apples and walnuts items were produced on Jan. 17, 2022. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to the consumption of these products.

FSIS is concerned that some products may be in consumers’ refrigerators. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.

In case you are experiencing listeria monocytogenes symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance.
