Nationwide Recall Issued for Frozen Fettuccine Over Listeria Contamination Risk
Frozen Fettuccine products are recalled nationwide due to potential listeria contamination.
Cleveland Akron, OH, September 21, 2026 —
A nationwide recall has been issued for certain frozen fettuccine products due to the potential presence of Listeria monocytogenes, a bacterium that can cause serious infections.
The scope of the recall includes a variety of frozen fettuccine items distributed across the country. Details regarding the specific brands, product names, lot codes, or expiration dates affected by this recall were not immediately available at the time of reporting.

Listeria monocytogenes can contaminate food and can survive even at refrigerator temperatures. Ingesting food contaminated with Listeria can lead to listeriosis, a severe illness that primarily affects pregnant women, newborns, older adults, and individuals with weakened immune systems. Symptoms can include fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance, and convulsions. In pregnant women, it can cause miscarriage, stillbirth, premature delivery, or life-threatening infection of the newborn.
