Firm recalls sandwiches sold at Pilot gas stations
An Ohio company is recalling pre-prepared sandwiches sold at Pilot gas stations in Wisconsin and 29 other states because of the possibility of contamination, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said Monday.
Classic Delight Inc., St. Marys, Ohio, is voluntarily recalling "Egg Salad on Vienna Bread, Pilot good to go" sandwiches because the product has the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. Listeria is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people and others with weakened immune systems.
The 4.5-ounce sandwiches are pre-prepared and frozen for shipment to be thawed and sold at individual Pilot Travel Center locations, including its stations in Oak Creek, Beloit, Franksville and Mauston. The recalled product carries a lot code of 5355. Classic Delight ceased production and distribution of the product after random samples taken by the Ohio Department of Agriculture tested positive.
No illnesses as a result of consumption of the product have been reported to date, the FDA said.
