The affected products were sold at the chain’s deli counters, both in bulk and prepackaged in various weights and includes chicken cutlets, marsala, grilled lemon chicken and teriyaki chicken sold on or after 26 February.


The retailer has removed all recalled products from sale and received no reports of illnesses from the consumption of the products.
