Western Family Spicy Southwester Kale Kit, 22.8 OZ bags UPC 062639352301- Canada

Mann Packing Company, INC. recalled Western Family in a Class I action — the FDA's most serious tier, reserved for products with a reasonable probability of causing serious health consequences or death on Oct 19, 2017.

The recall was triggered by possible Listeria contamination: "CFIA sampled one salad product which resulted in a positive result for Listeria monocytogenes." Listeria monocytogenes can grow at refrigerator temperatures and is especially dangerous for pregnant people, newborns, older adults, and those with weakened immune systems.

Distribution was limited; the FDA record lists "US and Canada." Single-area recalls still warrant a kitchen check for anyone who shops within that footprint. The recalling firm is based in Salinas, CA. The recall covers 219 units of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Nov 15, 2017), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved. The historical record remains useful for tracking a brand's recall pattern over time.
