A number of grocery chains, including Walmart, were sent an urgent warning by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of the United States, requesting that they quickly remove one of the sandwiches that is the most popular in the country from their shelves.
Because of the possibility that the Brie cheese spread within the Autumn Turkey Sandwiches contains Listeria, which is a potentially hazardous pathogen, CIBUS Fresh has removed some of these sandwiches off the shelves.
In addition to Tennessee, these sandwiches were sent to retail establishments in the states of Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, and Ohio.
If you want to determine whether or not a sandwich is one of the ones that have been recalled, you should look at the information that is printed on the box. Particulars such as the product name, weight, or expiration date were provided in the notification.
There is a possibility that the product is tainted with a harmful bacteria that might be harmful to people’s health and that the bacteria could be present in one of the ingredients that are utilized in these sandwiches, according to the agency.
Because the sandwiches are a sort of turkey sandwich made by the company CIBUS Fresh, and because there is a possibility that they contain Listeria monocytogenes, the Food and Drug Administration has ordered that they be removed off the stores immediately.
No more turkey sandwiches at Walmart
The turkey sandwiches from CIBUS Fresh that could potentially be infected with Listeria monocytogenescontain the spreadable Brie cheese obtained from Glenview Farms, which weighs two thirds of a pound.
These items were transported to Walmart stores in the states of Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Ohio, and Tennessee, and the company is already making efforts to remove them from their locations in these states.
Children, elderly people, and those with compromised immune systems are more likely to develop severe or even fatal infections if they consume products that have been contaminated with this bacteria, according to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
A high fever, a severe headache, stiffness, nausea, stomach discomfort, and diarrhea are some of the symptoms that may be experienced by adults who are otherwise healthy.
Get medical attention as soon as possible if you have consumed contaminated food or if you suspect that you may have consumed such food.

These three varieties of sandwiches have been recalled because they all contain Glenview Farms Spreadable Brie cheese, which was recalled by Savencia Cheese USA earlier this month. The recall was issued due of the ingredient.
In an explanation, CIBUS Fresh stated that it removed these sandwiches from stores because their supplier had informed them that the cheese could potentially contain Listeria.
Jack & Olive, Sprig and Sprout, and CIBUS Fresh were the brands of sandwiches that were purchased by customers before they were recalled.
On the other hand, there have been no reports of illnesses associated with this recall; however, Listeria can cause infections that are severe and even potentially fatal.
It is possible for anybody to become ill, but pregnant women, young children, elderly individuals, and persons with compromised immune systems are particularly at risk for contracting the infection.
It is possible for a healthy adult to develop symptoms such as experiencing a high fever, a severe headache, stiffness, nausea, stomach discomfort, and diarrhea.
