Kraft Heinz Foods is recalling 2,400 pounds of ready-to-eat ham and cheese loaf products due to possible cross-contamination with under-processed products.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service announced that the Oscar Mayer ready-to-eat ham and cheese loaf products were produced on Oct. 10, 2022.

The recall involves 16-oz. rigid vacuum-packed packages containing “Oscar Mayer Ham & Cheese LOAF” with codes from “07 Feb 2023 20:40 7B” through “07 Feb 2023 22:16 7B” on the label.

The products subject to recall bear establishment number “Est. 537V” inside the USDA mark of inspection.

These items were shipped to distribution centers in Ohio and Virginia, and further distributed for retail sales.

According to the Walmart website, its Ohio stores in Austintown, Cortland, East Liverpool, Poland, Salem, and Liberty, as well as stores in Greenville, Grove City, and New Castle, Pennsylvania are included.

The company says the lunch meat was sliced on the same equipment as a product that had been under processed, and the equipment was not cleaned between runs of the under-processed and fully cooked product.

The situation has led to concerns of possible cross-contamination of the fully cooked ham and cheese loaf product.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider. 

FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers’ refrigerators or freezers.

Anyone who bought the product should not eat it, but throw it out or return it to the place of purchase.
