There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions to date, but the agency warns eating contaminated food can cause listeriosis, a serious infection.
Listeria infections are caused by eating food contaminated with the bacteria called Listeria monocytogenes. Symptoms to look out for include headaches, fevers, changes in your mental status, difficulty walking and even seizures.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warns that people may also experience a stiff neck and flu-like symptoms, such as muscle aches and fatigue.
Some people are also at higher risk of severe cases, including those who are pregnant, newborns, adults 65 or older, and those with weakened immune systems.
“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 recall alert noted. “Anyone concerned about an illness should contact a healthcare provider.”
