Coborn’s, Inc. Issues Recall of Select Chicken Salad Products Due to Possible Listeria Contamination

Coborn’s, Inc. is recalling select chicken salad products, which may have been contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or 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 stillbirths among pregnant women.

The product recall has been initiated due to the supplier of the ready-to-eat chicken, Tip Top Poultry Inc. Rockmart, GA, recalling all their chicken materials produced between January 21, 2019 and September 24, 2019.

The recalled products were distributed and sold at Coborn’s and Cash Wise Stores in Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota; Marketplace Foods stores in Western Wisconsin. The table below includes the UPCs of products possibly affected.
