According to the recall notice posted on the FDA website, recalled products were distributed by Lipari Foods, located in Warren Michigan, to stores in Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, West Virginia and Wisconsin. All products began shipping to retailers on Jan. 3, are marked with a “Best By” date of either 1/21/2020 or 1/23/2020.
The update expands on a recall issued earlier this month, which included several other of the company's "Fresh Grab" and "Premo" products.
Listeria can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, elderly people or those with weakened immune systems. It can also cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women. Sickened individuals may experience high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea.
