The Food and Drug Administration said in an update that Gracie’s Kitchens Inc. of New Haven, Conn., has recalled all of its ready-to-eat fruit and vegetable products manufactured at its facility from Nov. 4-13. The agency said the recall is because the products have the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.

The FDA said the recalled products were distributed to grocery stores in Connecticut and New York. The products have a sell-by date from Nov. 9 to Nov. 24. The products are no longer in commerce and are past the sell-by dates.

No illnesses have been reported to date, according to the announcement.

The FDA said Gracie’s Kitchen is working with the agency following the finding of Listeria monocytogenes in a sample.
