Coles and IGA supermarkets recall a range of ready-to-eat meals

Food Standards Australia said the recall is due to fears it may be contaminated with Listeria, and urged anyone who purchased the product to return it for a full refund.

Coles and IGA have recalled a range of ready-to-eat meals over fears it may be contaminated with Listeria.

The supermarket giant and independent food retailers have pulled six varieties of Raw Nation Wholefoods meals from their shelves, including CRUDO and Bocadilla ready made meals.

Food Standards Australia said the recall is due to potential microbial (Listeria monocytogenes) contamination.

“Listeria may cause illness in pregnant women and their unborn babies, the elderly and people with low immune systems,” FSANZ said in a statement.

  • Crudo Vietnamese bowl 275g
  • Crudo Jamaican Jerk 250g
