USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service issued a public health alert due to concerns that ready-to-eat (RTE) ham products produced by Sunnyvalley Smoked Meats under the Kirkland label may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.

The RTE ham products were produced on Sept. 25 in four-pound vacuum-packed clear plastic packages containing “Kirkland Signature Applewood Smoked MASTER CARVE HALF HAM Boneless With Natural Juices” with Use/Freeze by date January 2024 and a sticker with lot number 264-4.

Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
