Droves of brands have been impacted by BrucePac's substantial recall of ready-to-eat meat and poultry products due to listeria concerns.&nbsp;

Nearly 12 million pounds of <a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/category/product-recalls" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BrucePac's products were recalled</a> because they may be tainted with potentially dangerous bacteria.&nbsp;

The recall was initiated by the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), an agency of the USDA, after the products tested positive for listeria monocytogenes during routine product testing.&nbsp;

A subsequent FSIS investigation identified BrucePac RTE chicken as the source of the bacteria, which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people and people with <a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/healthcare" target="_blank" rel="noopener">weakened immune systems</a>.&nbsp;

On Thursday, FSIS, which originally posted the recall notice for BrucePac products on Oct. 9, released an updated <a href="https://www.fsis.usda.gov/sites/default/files/food_label_pdf/2024-10/Recall-028-2024-Labels.pdf" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">348-page document</a> of all the products that may contain contaminated meat.

Some of the impacted <a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/category/food-drinks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">brands include major grocers</a> like Kroger, Boston Market and Amazon Fresh, Trader Joe’s and Wegmans. It also impacted convenience stores like 7Eleven and subscription meal service Home Chef. However, FSIS warned that some recalled products do not have a brand, so consumers are also encouraged to search for the product type or name.
