(WAND) - Grocery stores in Illinois and six other states are recalling prepared tuna salad products over potential listeria contamination. 

On July 21, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration published two recall notices tied to products supplied by Reser’s Fine Foods, which issued its recall after tracing the potential listeria contamination to breadcrumbs in the tuna salad.

The recalled products were sold in Jewel-Osco stores in Illinois, Indiana and Iowa and Albertsons, Randalls and Tom Thumb stores in Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas.

No illnesses have been reported so far.

Listeria is a serious food borne bacteria with the potential to cause severe infections in certain groups, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
