Milwaukee-based Garden Fresh Foods is recalling about 19,000 pounds of ready-to-eat chicken and ham products due to possible contamination with Listeria monocytogenes, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service said.
These
products are being recalled along with a recall by the same company of products
regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. See this list of recalled

The products were distributed to retail and food service establishments nationwide. They include several kinds of chicken and ham salads sold under the following brands: Market Pantry, Archer Farms, D'Amico and Sons, Finest Traditions, Garden Fresh, and Weis.
