BrucePac Of Oklahoma Recalls Nearly 10 Million Pounds Of Meat

This recall was originally just ready-to-eat meats and poultry, and has been expanded to cover a litany of products from a huge number of retailers. Retailers include, but are not limited to, Walmart, Costco, Trader Joes, Jenny Craig meals, Atkins meals and more. This recall has expanded from just ready-to-eat meats and poultry to:

• Burritos
• Pastas
• Rice meals
• Taquitos
• Frozen Meals
• Salads and more

BrucePac said they sell to so many companies that resell, repackage or use their meats as ingredients, that it's hard to have a comprehensive recall list. In fact, it's SO BIG that I'm only going to highlight the products I'm sure are sold in Montana in the gallery at the end of the article.  For every single item that's been recalled, click this link. This recall also affects restaurants.

Why Is BrucePac Doing This Huge Recall?

According to CNet, it's due to a possible Listeria Outbreak. Listeria is a bacteria that can cause listeriosis. Listeriosis is especially dangerous to pregnant women or other high-risk demographics.

Symptoms of Listeriosis include fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion and gastrointestinal distress and can lead to death in high risk populations.

What Do You Do If You Have A Recalled Product?
