US Food Giant Paying $4,000,000 To Customers After Massive Frozen Food Recall – No Proof Required
A US food giant has agreed to pay $4 million to settle a class action lawsuit over frozen food that was potentially contaminated with dangerous bacteria.
TreeHouse Foods is settling the class action lawsuit over its 2024 recall of frozen waffles and pancakes potentially amid concerns about Listeria monocytogenes.
The company denies wrongdoing and says it has settled to avoid litigation costs.
The voluntary recall began in October of last year, affecting products sold under over 40 brands including Great Value, Food Lion and Publix.
Listeria can cause severe infections, especially in pregnant women, newborns, and the elderly, leading to fever, nausea, and potentially fatal complications.
American buyers of the products between October 18, 2024, and September 2, 2025 are eligible.
With proof of purchase, claimants get full refunds per item. Without, they receive up to the average price for two products per household.
Payments are capped at $50 or a pro-rata share, reduced by prior reimbursements.
Claims must be filed online or by mail by December 16, 2025, and a final approval hearing is set for December 12, 2025.
