Sigma Recalls Menu Del Sol Burritos for Listeria Risk

April 3, 2017 — Menu Del Sol burritos were recalled after a routine sample of a product tested positive for Listeria.

The recall was issued by Sigma Alimentos is a Mexican company that sells frozen and refrigerated food at retail outlets in the United States. The company urges consumers to return the burritos for a full refund.

The company recalled 201 cases of 2-pack burritos sold in California and Nevada with “Best-By” dates of March 1, 2018 and an 11-month shelf-life, so consumers may still have the recalled burritos at home.

The product is Menu Del Sol frozen “Beans & Cheese Burritos” in 2-lb twin-packs with the following information printed on the wrapper: Lot #C3018, Best-By: “MAR01 18,” and UPC #45230-05601

Pregnant women may have no symptoms of infection with Listeria except a sudden miscarriage, premature birth, stillbirth, or other complications in a newborn baby.

Healthy adults may experience high fever, severe headache, stiff neck, nausea, and abdominal pain. These symptoms may occur after diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms.
