Did your lunch taste funny? Some people may not be laughing if their sandwiches contained tainted meat sold in some sandwiches in Wal-mart’s deli.

According to KTHV, concerns about the potential Arkansas defective product arose when a Buffalo company recalled meat used in sandwiches at Wal-mart’s deli because it may be contaminated with Listeria bacteria.

Though the sandwiches containing the meats have been recalled, there were no reported Arkansas defective product injuries such as illness due to having consumed the meat.

However, the recall of the potential Arkansas defective product was necessary because Listeria can cause serious, even fatal, infections in children and the elderly.

Included in the recall are Chevy Traverse, Buick Enclave, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook, all of which contain seatbelts on the second row that may appear to be latched when they are not, causing these vehicles to contain Arkansas defective products.

Toyota gave consumers a scare with its Arkansas defective products earlier this year. Problems with accelerators on many Toyota vehicles caused many of them to be recalled because consumers were at risk for Arkansas defective product injuries and Arkansas auto accidents.

However, the government states, according to Arkansas Democrat Gazette, that Toyota has found no new sources of Arkansas defective products in their vehicles.

About 9.5 million vehicles have been recalled for containing defective products since October.

However, officials find no more defective products in the vehicles.
