The following health alert is from the FDA on February 2, 2012.

Wegmans recalls various prepared foods that contain hard-cooked eggs produced by Michael Foods because the eggs have the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. This recall only affects purchases made at Wegmans’ Rochester, Buffalo, Syracuse, Canandaigua, Newark, Geneva, Corning, Elmira, Geneseo, and Hornell stores. It came about as the result of a recent recall by Minnesota-based Michael Foods, Inc., which produces the cooked eggs at its Wakefield, Nebraska facility.
The following affected products sold in Wegmans prepared foods and deli departments are included in the recall
ed. note: Only products listed as kosher are mentioned
Kosher Macaroni Salad (sold by the pound in kosher deli)
Kosher Pickled Eggs (sold by the pound in kosher deli)

Because these are fresh products with a very short shelf life, it is likely they have already been consumed. However, consumers who may still have the product in their homes should discard it and return to the service desk for a refund. If consumers have additional questions or concerns, please contact Wegmans at (800) 934-6267, and ask for consumer affairs, M – F, 8 am to 5 pm EST.
For further questions regarding this recall, please call Michael Foods at 877-367-3447, Monday through Friday, 8am – 5pm EST.
