- Tuna salad products recalled in AR, LA, OK, TX due to Listeria-contaminated breadcrumbs
10 products affected, sold under Albertsons, Randalls, and Tom Thumb banners
No illnesses reported; consumers urged to return or discard products immediately
Albertsons Companies is voluntarily recalling multiple ready-to-eat tuna salad items sold at Albertsons, Randalls, and Tom Thumb locations in Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas due to a potential Listeria contamination in breadcrumbs used by their supplier, Reser’s Fine Foods. Jewel Osco stores are doing the same in Illinois, Indiana and Iowa.
The recall includes 10 different tuna-based products such as sandwiches, salads, snack trays, and party platters sold between July 16 and July 19, 2025. The decision follows a supplier-initiated recall after Listeria monocytogenes was identified in a breadcrumb ingredient used in the tuna salad formulations.
“There have been no reported illnesses or adverse reactions,” Albertsons said in a company statement. “This action is being taken out of an abundance of caution.”
Health risks and FDA guidance
Listeria monocytogenes poses a serious risk to vulnerable populations, including pregnant women, infants, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems. While healthy individuals may only experience short-term symptoms such as fever, nausea, and diarrhea, the infection can lead to miscarriages or stillbirths.
The FDA advises anyone who may have purchased the recalled items to dispose of them immediately or return them to the store for a full refund. Customers are also urged to thoroughly sanitize any surfaces or containers that may have come in contact with the products, as Listeria can survive in refrigerated conditions and spread easily.
