Massive Frozen Waffle Recall Over Listeria Concerns in U.S. and Canada

TreeHouse Foods recalls hundreds of frozen waffle products due to potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination discovered during routine testing.

TreeHouse Foods has voluntarily recalled hundreds of frozen waffle products sold under various brand names at major retailers like Walmart, Target, and Publix.
The potential contamination was detected at a manufacturing facility in Brantford, Ontario, prompting action from both U.S. and Canadian food safety agencies.
Listeria monocytogenes can cause serious infections, particularly in pregnant women, newborns, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems.
No illnesses have been reported so far, but consumers are advised to dispose of or return affected products for a refund.
This recall follows a series of similar listeria-related recalls in the food industry, highlighting ongoing concerns about food safety standards.
