USDA Issues Health Alert for Mary's Harvest Curry Chicken Salad Over Listeria Risk
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued a public health alert for Mary's Harvest Curry Chicken Salad because the product may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. The salad was produced on July 22 2026, packaged in eight‑ounce plastic containers with a use‑by date of July 30 2026, and shipped to retail locations in Oregon and Washington.
No illnesses have been reported, and a recall was not requested because the product is no longer available for purchase. Listeria can grow at refrigeration temperatures and freezing does not kill the bacteria. The incubation period for listeriosis can be up to 70 days. Consumers who purchased the salad are urged to discard it or return it to the place of purchase and to monitor for symptoms if they consumed it.
