Duda Farm Fresh Foods urges consumers to discard affected Walmart-sold celery sticks after a positive Listeria test, with no illnesses reported so far.

Duda Farm Fresh Foods, Inc. has issued a voluntary recall for Marketside Celery Sticks due to potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination.
The recall affects 1,587 cases of celery sticks sold at Walmart stores across 29 states and Washington, D.C., under the lot code P047650 and best-by date of March 23, 2025.
The contamination was identified through random testing by the Georgia Department of Agriculture, with one sample testing positive for Listeria.
