Almark Foods has expanded a recall to include all hard-boiled egg products manufactured at its facility in Gainesville, Ga., due to potential listeria contamination. On December 18, the USDA notified Almark Foods that the company’s Hard-Boiled and Peeled eggs in pails may be associated with a listeria outbreak that has been linked to several reported illnesses and one reported death.
Out of an abundance of caution, Almark is voluntarily expanding the recall to include all product packaged for the retail market manufactured at the Gainesville plant that remains within shelf life, which includes product with “Best if Used By” dates through March 2, 2020. Almark has also temporarily suspended production at its Gainesville plant.
Potentially affected products include brands like Egglands Best, Pete & Gerry’s, and Vital Farms. Egg products from Giant Eagle, Kroger, and ShopRite are included as well. Full list of products.
