A Denver firm has recalled about 172 pounds of burritos that may be contaminated with Listeria monocyto genes, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service announced Tuesday.
The recall by Home Fresh Sandwich Distributors Inc. involved 5.3-ounce packages of "7-Eleven Fresh to Go burrito with potatoes, bacon, eggs & Montery Jack cheese" with a best by date of "Thursday 1225."
Consumers may have purchased these burrito products on Dec. 24 and 25. The food-safety service has received no reports of illnesses associated with consumption of this product. - denver
Strange genes in a Christmas burrito? That's a factory gate crashing ... oh, nevermind, this isn't Korea. Oh, they aren't genes, they are bacteria. The correct spelling is "Listeria monocytogenes". Read the Wiki article paying attention to the source of the bacterial contamination in a previous case and you'll never eat a 7/11 burrito again.
