The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has issued a public health alert for 16 ready-to-eat foods that may contain dairy manufactured by Rizo-López Foods. That company voluntarily recalled several dozen of its dairy products in early February after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) linked the items to a Listeria outbreak that has resulted in two deaths and 23 hospitalizations in 11 states so far. 

The latest public health alert covers items sold at Trader Joe's, Amazon Kitchen, Albertson's, Raley's, and other retailers, and includes chicken enchiladas and burritos. The list of products subject to the public health alert are available here, including the establishment numbers and states where the products were distributed. The food labels are also available here.

FSIS is issuing this public health alert to ensure that consumers are aware that these products, which bear the USDA mark of inspection, should not be consumed.
