If you recently purchased Oscar Mayer ready-to-eat chicken breast strips with rib meat, there is a chance that they may be
contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, which can cause an uncommon but possibly fatal disease known as listeriosis. After scientists at the Georgia Deprtment of Agriculture found one package that was contaminated, Kraft Consumer Response announced that the recall affects all six ounce packages of 'Oscar Mayer/Louis Rich chicken breast strips with rib meat, grilled, fully cooked, ready to eat'.
The packages in question are marked with an establishment number of 'P-19676' and a 'Use by' date of 19 Apr 2007. The recall affects all such packages sold nationwide.

Listeria is a serious problem if you're pregnant.

Yesterday I bought two packages. One was the recalled product, the other had an expiration date of 2 weeks prior. I returned both to the store where I bought them (a national chain) today and the clerks at the Customer Service Desk were not even aware of the recall. They gave me a refund without question, but its a little disconcerting that major chains were never notified of the recall so they could pull it from the shelves. I contacted Headquarters to express my concern. With three recalls in as many weeks, I may have to rethink my menu planning.
