The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has recalled two lots of Bettergoods Authentic Italian Lemon Alfredo Fettuccine from Walmart due to potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination. The recall was announced on September 15. The product, produced by Gias Foods of New York, is being pulled from shelves to ensure consumer safety.
Consumers who purchased the frozen pasta are advised to stop using it immediately and return it for a full refund. The FDA has not confirmed any cases of illness linked to the product. Listeria monocytogenes is a type of bacteria that can cause serious illness, particularly in high-risk groups such as the elderly, pregnant women, and those with weakened immune systems.
The recall affects specific batch numbers, which were identified during routine safety checks. Walmart has been informed of the FDA’s decision and is cooperating with the recall process. No further details about the source of the contamination have been released.
Customers are encouraged to check the product’s packaging for the recalled lot numbers and contact Walmart for refund information. The FDA continues to monitor the situation and may update guidelines as more information becomes available.
