For those who are unaware, listeria is an organism that can cause a multitude of ailments such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. It can also cause serious and occasionally fatal infections in young children, the elderly, and others with a weak immune system. Additionally, it can cause stillbirths and miscarriage in pregnant women.

“The recall was the result of a routine sampling program by the packing house which revealed that the finished products contained the bacteria. The company has ceased the distribution of the product as FDA and the company continue their investigation as to what caused the problem,” the FDA notice reports.
