The Food and Drug Administration says Braga Fresh voluntarily recalled a single production lot of its washed and ready-to-eat 12-ounce Marketside Broccoli Florets with a best-if-used-by date of Dec. 10, 2024.
The company said it initiated this recall due to a possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination, which was discovered during random sampling by Texas Health and Human Services from a store location in Texas where multiple samples yielded a positive test result.
The FDA said no illnesses have been reported and the product involved in the recall is beyond its best-if-used-by date and no longer in stores.
The items were distributed to stores in Alaska, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wyoming.
The specific product involved is 12-ounce bags of Marketside Broccoli Florets sold at Walmart stores identified by having a UPC code 6 81131 32884 5 on the back of the bag, with a lot code of BFFG327A6 on the front of the bag.
The FDA said this advisory does not apply to any other Marketside or Braga Fresh-produced products.
