Recall guidelines <strong>for</strong> packaged RTE foods<br />

• Food processed correctly <strong>and</strong> protected from contamination after<br />

processing should normally be able to comply with a not detected in 25g<br />

criterion.<br />

• The presence of L. monocytogenes in products produced by a process<br />

which is capable of achieving a Listeria-free product may indicate that<br />

<strong>the</strong> process is not totally under control (i.e. an indication of ei<strong>the</strong>r<br />

inadequate processing or post-process contamination that should be<br />

investigated by <strong>the</strong> manufacturer)<br />

• Manufacturers must still strive <strong>for</strong> nil tolerance in <strong>the</strong>ir packaged<br />

ready-to-eat products.
