Metro Product Distributors out of Minneapolis has voluntarily recalled all Lunds & Byerlys fresh guacamole products with a use-by date of Aug. 2, 2024, because they could potentially be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.
The guacamole was sold at Lunds & Byerlys grocery stores located throughout the Twin Cities area and St. Cloud.
No illnesses have been reported.
