Ham Product Alert Sparks Warning to Customers
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued a public health alert on Sunday for ham salad products containing breadcrumbs that have been recalled due to fears of potential listeria monocytogenes contamination. Newsweek reached out to the FSIS via email Monday for comment. Why It Matters Listeria is able to survive refrigerator temperatures and can infect individuals after eating contaminated food, sometimes with symptoms appearing as late as 30 to 90 days after exposure, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says. According to the FDA, symptoms include fever, muscle aches, and gastrointestinal distress. In vulnerable populations, such as pregnant women, infection can result in miscarriage, stillbirth, or severe illness in newborns. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates about 2,500 serious listeriosis illnesses and 500 related deaths occur annually in the U.S. Numerous recalls have been initiated in 2025 due to the potential for damaged products, foodborne illness, contamination and undeclared food allergens. Millions of Americans experience food sensitivities or allergies every year. According to the FDA, the nine "major" food allergens in the U.S. are eggs, milk, fish, wheat, soybeans, Crustacean shellfish, sesame, tree nuts and peanuts. What To Know The FSIS says that 12-ounce printed plastic tubs containing "RESER'S FINE FOODS Ham Salad" and 5-pound clear plastic tubs containing "Molly's Kitchen Ham Salad" are under the public health alert. The Reser's Fine Foods ham salads have a sell by date of September 1, 2025. The Molly's Kitchen ham salad products have a sell by date of August 31, 2025. The problem was first discovered when Reser's Fine Foods, Inc., in Topeka, Kansas, found out that they use recalled breadcrumbs in their ham salads, the FSIS says. There have been no reports of people having "adverse reactions" related to this health alert as of Sunday, the FSIS says.

Photo from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service What People Are Saying The FSIS in the alert in part: "In addition, serious and sometimes fatal infections can occur in older adults and persons with weakened immune systems. Listeriosis is treated with antibiotics. Persons in the higher-risk categories who experience flu-like symptoms within two months after eating contaminated food should seek medical care and tell the health care provider about eating the contaminated food." It continued: "FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers' or retailers' refrigerators or freezers. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. Retailers that have purchased these products are urged not to serve or sell them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase." What Happens Next? People are urged to call the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline with any safety questions at 888-MPHotline or email MPHotline@ the FSIS says.

Public Health Alert Issued Over Ham Salad: 'Should Be Thrown Away'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Americans have been warned to throw away ham salad products because of potential bacterial contamination. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued a public health alert on Sunday because of concerns that the products may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. "These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase," the alert said. Newsweek has contacted Newly Weds Foods and Reser's Fine Foods for comment. Why It Matters The FSIS was established to prevent foodborne illnesses and uphold food safety standards, and the agency issues product recalls or public health alerts if it determines that certain food items may pose a health risk. "Listeriosis can cause fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance and convulsions sometimes preceded by diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms," FSIS said in its public health alert. It added, "Persons in the higher-risk categories who experience flu-like symptoms within two months after eating contaminated food should seek medical care and tell the health care provider about eating the contaminated food." What To Know The FSIS issued its public health alert for ham salad products containing breadcrumb products regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that have been recalled by Newly Weds Foods over concerns that they may be contaminated with listeria. Listeria monocytogenes can cause serious, and in some cases fatal, infections—particularly in pregnant individuals, newborns, older adults and those with weakened immune systems. The products included in the public health alert are these: 12-ounce printed plastic tubs labeled "RESER'S FINE FOODS Ham Salad" with a sell-by date of September 1, 2025 5-pound clear plastic tubs labeled "Molly's Kitchen Ham Salad" with a sell-by date of August 31, 2025 The issue came to light when Reser's Fine Foods Inc., based in Topeka, Kansas, determined it had used a breadcrumb product regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that was subject to an FDA recall issued over a potential listeria contamination. FSIS warned that some of the affected products may still be in consumers' or retailers' refrigerators or freezers. Consumers who purchased the recalled ham salad are urged not to consume it. Retailers are advised not to sell or serve the products. Instead, the items should be discarded or returned to the place of purchase. At the time of the announcement, there had been no confirmed reports of illness linked to the affected products. However, FSIS advised that anyone concerned about potential illness should contact a health care provider. What Happens Next Consumers with questions about food safety can contact the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 888-MPHotline (888-674-6854) or email MPHotline@

Irish tomato-growing brothers star in Marks and Spencer advert
A PAIR of tomato-growing brothers in Dublin are the stars of Marks and Spencer's latest advertising campaign. John and Matt Foley, from the coastal town of Rush in Co. Dublin, supply M&S with Rosa Vine, Tomalini and classic Salad tomatoes from their Kilbush Nurseries business. M&S Food Ambassador Mark Moriarty met with the siblings to get an insight into how the sweetness of their produce is attributed to their coastal sea location. John and Matt Foley, from Rush, Co. Dublin, supply M&S with Rosa Vine, Tomalini and classic Salad tomatoes "It was a pleasure to meet John and Matt at Kilbush Nurseries in Rush,' he said. 'Seeing firsthand how the local environment contributes to the unique sweetness of their tomatoes was fascinating. 'Their commitment to growing the highest quality, seasonal produce, from planting in January to daily harvesting, truly showcases the passion that goes into every M&S tomato,' he added. 'It's growers like the Foley brothers that ensure customers have access to top-quality products when they shop in M&S.' The brothers are the latest producers to feature in the British chain's new Farm to Foodhall advertising campaign. Last month, Monaghan farmer Malachy Traynor featured in the first instalment tof the campaign. 'Our Farm to Foodhall campaign continues to champion the incredible work of our M&S Select Farms in Ireland,' Laura Harper, Trading Director for M&S Ireland and Northern Ireland, said.

Dublin, highlighting how their unique coastal location and dedication to environmental practices guarantee our customers fresh and delicious tasting and trusted tomatoes every time,' she added.
