Recall of Sandwiches Sold in Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas
Recalled Cloud’s tuna salad sandwiches and egg salad sandwiches sold at convenience stores in East Texas, West Louisiana, and Southwest Arkansas may have been contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, a potentially-fatal foodborne pathogen.
The recalled sandwiches, packaged in flexible plastic film and plastic wedges, are as follows:
- Cloud's Tuna Salad Sandwich on White Bread, 5 oz., date code 62607-72507
- Cloud's Egg Salad Sandwich on White Bread, 5 oz., date code 41907-72507
The product labels have "Cloud's Tuna Salad" or "Cloud's Egg Salad" on them.
If you are one of the unlucky people who ate a recalled Cloud’s sandwich, you need to watch for symptoms of Listeria poisoning (listeriosis) for about 2 months. If you have the receipt from the store where you bought the sandwich, put it in a safe place.
Pregnant women are the most susceptible to contracting a Listeria infection. Although a pregnant woman who contracts a Listeria infection may only have mild, flu-like symptoms, she may have a miscarriage or stillbirth. If you are a pregnant woman who ate a recalled sandwich and now have flu-like symptoms, contact your doctor immediately.
The elderly and people with compromised immune systems are at greater risk for serious complications from a Listeria infection, including Listeria meningitis, which is an infection of the brain and/or spinal cord. Listeria meningitis can cause permanent brain damage.
