RECALL: Burgers, Sandwiches Sold in South Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota
Possible Listeria contamination has led to a South Dakota company recalling three of its products.
According to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, Corsica-based Dakota Tom's Sandwiches took voluntary action because a burger patty was included in a recall from an outside supplier. The supplier, Woodburn, Oregon-based BrucePac, recalled the burger due to possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination.
The Dakota Tom's products that include the burger are:
- Pepper Jack Cheeseburger: UPC 737296806008
- The Gambler: UPC 737296601788
- Bacon Cheeseburger: UPC 3729680300
All have Best-by Dates ranging from 9/1/24 to 11/23/24 and were sold in grocery and convenience stores in South Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Wyoming.
As of now, no illnesses have been reported.
Listeria monocytogenes are an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
Consumers who have purchased these sandwiches should not consume them; rather, they should return them to the store for a full refund or discard the item.
Any questions about the recall can be directed to Dakota Tom’s Sandwiches at (605) 946-5123.
