**Oscar Mayer Turkey Bacon Recalled Nationwide Over Listeria Concerns**
CHICAGO, IL – Kraft Heinz announced Wednesday a voluntary recall of over 367,000 pounds of Oscar Mayer turkey bacon due to potential contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. The affected products were produced between April 24 and June 11, 2025, and shipped to stores across the United States, as well as the British Virgin Islands and Hong Kong.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced the recall, emphasizing that Listeria contamination can cause listeriosis, a serious infection, particularly dangerous for individuals with weakened immune systems, older adults, and pregnant women and their newborns.
“At Kraft Heinz, nothing matters more to us than the safety of our products and the well-being of the families who trust them,” a Kraft Heinz spokesperson told Fox News Digital. “In line with our safety protocols, we are actively working with all retail partners and distributors to remove the potentially impacted product from circulation.”
The company discovered the issue through lab testing. As of Wednesday, Kraft Heinz had not received any consumer complaints or reports of illness linked to the recalled turkey bacon.
Consumers who have purchased Oscar Mayer turkey bacon with production dates between April 24 and June 11 are urged to discard the product immediately or return it to the place of purchase for a full refund. This recall follows a similar recent recall of ready-to-eat foods by Fresh & Ready Foods related to a Listeria outbreak that hospitalized 10 people in California and Nevada.
Kraft Heinz is cooperating with public health authorities on the recall. For more information, consumers can visit the USDA’s FSIS website.
