Plain-English summary
Northfield Foods Inc. has issued a Class I recall for approximately 187,000 pounds of pre-sliced oven-roasted turkey breast distributed to grocery delis nationwide between April 2 and May 14, 2026.
The recall was prompted by routine FDA testing that detected Listeria monocytogenes in finished product. No illnesses have been confirmed at the time of the announcement, but the agency classifies this as Class I because Listeria can cause serious — and sometimes fatal — infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and pregnant women.
