Contamination Alert: Price Chopper Recalls Fresh Sliced Deli Meat in Windsor Location Due to Unsanitized Equipment
A recent recall has been issued for fresh sliced deli meats purchased on Saturday, October 26, 2024, at the Windsor Price Chopper on Poquonock Avenue.
The recall affects all deli meat sliced between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m., stemming from a potential contamination issue linked to unsanitized equipment.
The company disclosed that the recall was issued “out of an abundance of caution” to prevent any health risks, though no health issues have been reported in connection with this incident.
