Listeria Contamination Results in Chicken Recall
Starbucks shelves stocked with chicken wraps are a little emptier after a Listeria contamination prompted a recall. Lawrenceville, GA-based Flying Food Group recalled 204 pounds of ready-t0-eat chicken wraps and chicken plates that may have been contaminated with the dangerous pathogen, Listeria monocytogenes, according to the USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service.
