January 30, 2023 — Nearly 53,000 pounds of ready-to-eat Italian cold cuts, including some Boar’s Head deli meats, were recalled due to Listeria bacteria.

The recall was announced by Daniele International LLC, a Rhode Island-based establishment.

The recall includes certain Boar’s Head Charcuterie Trio Boards and several other products sold under brands like Frederick’s by Meijer, Del Duca, Colameco’s Primo Naturale, and Gourmet Selection.

The products were shipped to retailers nationwide from December 23, 2022 through January 17, 2023.

The recalled products include:

• 6-oz. plastic tray of “FREDERIK’S by meijer SPANISH STYLE charcuterie sampler tray” with sell by date 4/15/23.

The USDA Food Safety Inspection Service (FSIS) said that no illnesses were reported at the time of the recall. Instead, the recall was issued after routine tests found Listeria bacteria on food-contact surfaces in the facility.

Health officials have recently warned that deli meat is a “high-risk” food for certain groups of people who are more likely to develop a serious infection, including pregnant women and elderly adults.

For example, deli meats and cheeses were linked to two deadly outbreaks of Listeria infections in January 2021 and November 2022, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
