Health Alert: Product Recall of Chicken Products
A Georgia-based food company has recalled thousands of pounds of ready-to-eat chicken products due to potential listeria contamination. This recall was prompted by a discovery from a third-party laboratory.
Details of the Recall
- The recalled chicken products were produced on Oct. 14, 2025.
- Approximately 13,720 pounds of grilled chicken breast fillets are affected.
- These products were sold in 10-pound cases and distributed in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Missouri, New Hampshire, North Carolina, and Ohio.
Health Risks
Although there have been no reported illnesses linked to these products, the risk posed by Listeria monocytogenes is significant. This bacteria can cause serious infections when ingested, especially in vulnerable populations.
Health Official Recommendations

- If found, it is crucial to dispose of them immediately to prevent any potential health risks.
Health and safety regulators, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, continue to monitor the situation to ensure consumer safety.
