Why was Black Bean Bonanza Tamales with Black Beans and Jack Cheese Ingred… recalled?
According to the FDA, the stated reason for the recall is: “Potential contamination with biological hazards (Listeria monocytogenes).” In plain terms, this recall relates to Listeria.
Listeria monocytogenes is a bacterium that can grow even at refrigerator temperatures, which makes it a particular concern in ready-to-eat foods. Health authorities warn that it can cause a serious infection called listeriosis, and that pregnant people, newborns, older adults, and those with weakened immune systems are especially vulnerable. This is why products potentially contaminated with Listeria are often recalled quickly.
What should you do?
If you think you may have bought Black Bean Bonanza Tamales with Black Beans and Jack Cheese Ingred…, compare it against the product description and identifying codes (UPC: 748732000218) before using it.
The general guidance for a matching product is to stop using it and follow the instructions in the official FDA recall notice, which may include a repair, replacement, refund, or safe disposal. When in doubt, contact Prima Vera Nueva, Inc. or your local health authority.
