Test results for Listeria monocytogenes in connection with the recalled products have not been received, but due to recurring Listeria species issues, Bar-S Foods has decided to remove the products from commerce as a precautionary measure. 

Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
