  • 12-oz. vacuum-packed packages of "Oscar Mayer Turkey BACON ORIGINAL" and universal product code (UPC) "071871548601" printed on the packaging under the barcode,"use by" dates ranging from "18 JUL 2025" to "02 AUG 2025," and lot code "RS40."
  • 36-oz. packages containing three 12-oz. vacuum-packed packages of "Oscar Mayer Turkey BACON ORIGINAL" and universal product code (UPC) "071871548748" printed on the packaging under the barcode, "use by" dates ranging "23 JUL 2025" to "04 SEP 2025," and lot codes "RS19," "RS40," or "RS42."

These items were shipped to retailers nationwide.

So far, there have been no reports of adverse reactions to consuming these products, but anyone concerned about illness should contact a health provider.

Why Is This So Important?

Listeria can cause a serious illness (listeriosis) that primarily affects older adults, persons with weakened immune systems, pregnant women, and their newborns.

The Food Safety and Inspection Service is concerned that people may still have these products in their homes and is advising that they either be thrown away or returned to the store where the turkey bacon was purchased.
