“FSIS is concerned that some products may be in consumers’ refrigerators. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase,” the announcement stated.
USDA officials said there have been “no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products.”
“Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider,” the recall added.
The CDC says that eating contaminated food with Listeria can cause severe illness “when the bacteria move beyond the gut to other areas of the body.”
“Listeria is especially harmful if you are pregnant, aged 65 or older, or have a weakened immune system due to certain medical conditions or treatments,” the CDC states. “If you are pregnant, it can cause pregnancy loss, premature birth, or life-threatening infection in your newborn. Other people can be infected with Listeria, but they rarely become seriously ill.”
Those at lower risk of severe illness can experience “mild food poisoning symptoms like diarrhea and fever, and usually, recover without treatment.”
