Costco is notifying its customers to check their freezer and toss frozen meal kits that may be contaminated with deadly bacteria.

According to a recall notice posted on Costco’s website, Rana Chicken Truffle Carbonara and Rana Tagliatelle Grilled White Chicken & Portobello Mushroom Sauce frozen meals are being recalled. The products were sold between September and October 2024.

It’s another notice related to the massive recall of now 11.7 million pounds of ready-to-eat meat and poultry products produced by BrucePac. The products have the potential to be contaminated with listeria monocytogenes. Out of an abundance of caution, the Rana products are being recalled if they contained a chicken ingredient that was supplied by BrucePac and was used in the making of the product.

Costco urged consumers to not eat the meal kits. They should be thrown away or returned to a local Costco for a full refund.

Consumers can call Rana Meal Solutions at 888-326-2721 or visit www.giovanniranausa.com/contacts.html for any issues or concerns.

Consumption of food contaminated with listeria can cause listeriosis — a serious infection that primarily affects older adults, persons with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women and their newborns. Less commonly, persons outside these risk groups are affected, according to the FSIS.

Listeriosis can cause fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance and convulsions sometimes preceded by diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms. An invasive infection can spread beyond the gastrointestinal tract.

In pregnant women, the infection can cause miscarriages, stillbirths, premature delivery or life-threatening infection of the newborn.

Additionally, serious and sometimes fatal infections in older adults and persons with weakened immune systems.
