M.C.I. Foods recalls 91,585 pounds of burritos for Listeria risk

The recall affects three distinct brands: El Mas Fino, Los Cabos, and Midamar.

WASHINGTON — M.C.I. Foods Inc. has issued a recall for approximately 91,585 pounds of ready-to-eat frozen breakfast burritos and wraps, which contain eggs, due to the potential risk of Listeria contamination.

The company, located in Santa Fe Springs, California, reported that these frozen breakfast products were produced between September 17 and October 14, 2025.

The affected items are distributed under the El Mas Fino, Los Cabos, and Midamar brands and can be identified by the “establishment number” EST. 1162A or P-5890A marked on their packaging.

The issue was identified during routine sampling of the “scrambled egg component,” as stated by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service.

According to the recall notice, some of the recalled burritos are part of the USDA’s National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs.

No illnesses have been reported in connection to the recall, but health officials encourage people with symptoms to contact their healthcare provider. 

Listeria infections can be especially dangerous for children, pregnant women, adults over 65 and people with weakened immune systems. The bacteria can cause listeriosis, a serious infection that may lead to fever, muscle aches, headaches, stiff neck, confusion and loss of balance.

For pregnant women, listeria can cause miscarriages, stillbirths or life-threatening infections in newborns. While less common, healthy adults outside high-risk groups can also become ill.

People in high-risk categories who develop flu-like symptoms within two months of eating contaminated food should seek medical attention and inform their healthcare provider about the potential exposure.

The recall encourages people to throw the frozen products away. Anyone with questions can contact M.C.I. Foods Inc. at 888-345-5364.
