Walmart has announced a recall of food products sold in some of its stores across the country due to an illness risk. <\/p>\n
Kayem Foods Inc. is recalling approximately 1,584,361 pounds of ready-to-eat meat and poultry products due to possible temperature abuse during storage, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture\u2019s Food Safety and Inspection Service. <\/p>\n
The company produced the affected items between March 31 and Oct. 7, 2026. The products were shipped to select Walmart stores in the following states: Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Vermont.<\/p>\n
The recall was initiated after a retail customer complained about warm product temperatures at the point of delivery on Oct. 1. The company investigated and determined that various ready-to-eat meat and poultry products had been stored in a warehouse cooler that had experienced temperature deviations.<\/p>\n
No confirmed reports of illness have been linked to consumption of these products. However, federal food safety officials are concerned that some product may still be in consumers\u2019 refrigerator.<\/p>\n
The recalled products bear establishment numbers \u201cEST. M\/P 7839,\u201d \u201cEST. P 20935A\u201d and \u201cEST. M 9520\u201d inside the USDA mark of inspection.<\/p>\n
Consumers who have purchased these products should not eat them, according to the FSIS. The items should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase. <\/p>\n
