FSIS issued a public health alert for Daisy Brand headcheese deli meat that may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes after a positive test linked to a localized Illinois outbreak with three illnesses. The fully cooked headcheese products (EST. 21406) produced Jan 20, 2026 with USE BY MAR 26, 2026 were sold to retail delis in Illinois and Indiana; no recall was issued because the product is no longer available. Consumers who purchased these items should discard them and sanitize surfaces; high-risk individuals should seek medical care if symptoms develop. FSIS is coordinating with Illinois public health authorities as investigations continue. For questions, contact Crawford Sausage Co. or the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline.
