The company said Listeria monocytogenes is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. It said healthy people may have only short-term symptoms, including high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea. It added that infection in pregnant women can cause miscarriages and stillbirths.

The recalled sandwiches weigh 4.6 ounces and come in clear plastic film. They were made at a Fresh & Ready facility in Renton and distributed in Oregon and Washington to employee break rooms, refrigerated vending and cafeterias. Distribution took place between Oct. 25 and Nov. 4, 2026. The announcement did not name the specific businesses or locations that received them.

The product carries SKU 3100048 and UPC 8 405493 0168 4. The front label lists a “Fresh Thru” date range of 11/07 to 11/19.

The company said the recall follows a separate one started by CH Guenther & Son, which involves some biscuit products with possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination. Fresh & Ready Foods said it used the affected biscuit as an ingredient only in this sandwich. It said no other Fresh To You or Fresh & Ready Foods products, production dates, or products made at its other facilities are affected.

Consumers can request a full refund. They can contact Fresh & Ready Foods by email at RecallConcern@HotLineGlobal.com or by phone at 1-855-424-8390. Phone lines are open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern time.
