Walmart Pasta Listeria Recall: How to Check Bettergoods Fettuccine
The FDA recall covers one Bettergoods frozen fettuccine product and two specific lot-and-date combinations—not all Walmart pasta.
The phrase Walmart pasta listeria recall sounds broad, but the FDA recall notice identifies one specific frozen Bettergoods product sold at Walmart stores nationwide. Gias Foods, Inc. announced the recall on September 15, 2026 because the product may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. The notice said no illnesses had been reported at that time.
The recall applies to a specific package, not all Walmart pasta
Check the product details together:
| Package detail | Recall information |
|---|---|
| Brand and product | Bettergoods Authentic Italian Lemon Alfredo Fettuccine |
| Size and condition | Frozen, 22 oz |
| UPC | 194346442706 |
| Lot and expiration | L6079C — September 19, 2027; L6080C — September 20, 2027 |
The lot and expiration pairing is what prevents the search phrase from becoming an overbroad warning. A different lot is not identified in this notice. That does not independently certify another package as safe; it simply marks the boundary of the recall FDA described.
Why the no-illnesses note does not change the action
No illnesses reported as of September 15 is a status update, not permission to eat a matching package. For a package that matches the product, UPC, lot, and expiration details above, the FDA instruction remains clear: do not eat it and return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.
What to do with a matching package
- Do not eat or serve it.
- Return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.
- If returning it is not possible, follow the FDA’s general food-recall guidance: dispose of it safely rather than giving it to another person, a food bank, or a pet.
- Wash and sanitize any refrigerator shelf, counter, utensil, or other surface that contacted the product, and wash your hands afterward.
The practical takeaway is narrow but important: check the package identifiers before treating the entire Walmart pasta section as recalled.
