The products were sold in Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky and Wisconsin, between Sept. 27 and 0ct. 20. They were packaged in plastic containers or foam trays with printed labels that indicate various sizes and weights, the FDA said.

All the products are from Mann Packing of Salinas, California.

Mann Packing says it is issuing this recall in response to a single positive result found on one of its products during random sampling by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.

Listeria monocytogenes bacteria can cause fatal food poisoning in young children, pregnant women and elderly or frail people.

To date, public health officials have not reported any illnesses associated with these products.

Mann Packaging has set up a hotline to learn more about the recall at 1-888-470-2681.
