'Do not eat': Meat product recalled due to presence of disease-causing bacteria

The Food Standards Agency advises vulnerable groups to avoid Gilbert’s turkey breast pastrami with best-before April 9 due to Listeria contamination risk.

  • Food Standards Agency recalled Gilbert Turkey Breast Pastrami due to listeria monocytogenes contamination in batches CK016 and CK027, which carry a best before date of April 9.
  • The disease-causing bacteria can survive and grow under refrigeration, causing Listeriosis lasting several weeks, prompting The FSA to issue a "do not eat" warning to customers.
  • Infection symptoms include fever, vomiting, and headaches, with rare cases resulting in meningitis. Some people over 65 face heightened infection risks, along with pregnant women and infants.
  • Customers who purchased the product should return it to the Point of sale for a full refund. An FSA spokesman stated: "If you have bought the above product, do not eat it."
  • Local authorities receive a Food Alert for Action detailing specific steps to protect consumers. These withdrawal and recall notices explain product risks and guide retailers and customers on proper handling.
