Food Safety News reported yesterday that Integrated Food Service, a supplier of ready-to-eat school food sandwiches, has recalled 45 of its products due to a possible listeria risk.
The recall spans 38 school districts in 29 states, including my own district of Houston ISD, the nation’s seventh largest. The affected products include “breakfast sandwiches and wraps, burgers, chicken patties, hot dogs and deli-style sandwiches.”
It isn’t clear when the products were distributed to schools or if they were actually served to students in the affected districts. Food Safety News also notes that symptoms of listeria can take up to 70 days to appear after consumption of contaminated food.
