If you purchased this product, do not eat it. Throw it away in a sealed or double bagged container, or take it back to the place of purchase for a refund.
Then clean out your refrigerator or freezer with a mild bleach solution, since Listeria monocytogenes bacteria can grow at refrigerator temperatures and freezing doesn’t kill it. Wash your hands well with soap and water after handling this product.
If you ate this recalled product, watch yourself for the symptoms of listeriosis for the next 70 days. Those symptoms include high fever, severe headache, neck stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea.
