Food Lion has issued a recall of all code dates of its Food Lion brand Homestyle Buttermilk Biscuits after being notified by its manufacturer that the product may have been contaminated with listeria monocytogenes.
While there have been no reports of illnesses to date, the product is being recalled as a precautionary measure after T. Marzetti Company, the manufacturer of the product, has indicated a possible contamination issue with Listeria monocytogenes at one of its plants.
Food Lion has removed all affected product from its shelves and urges customers to return the product to their local Food Lion store for a full refund. Customers may also contact Food Lion's Customer Support Center at 1-800-210-9569.
