Company announcement

FSIS issues a public health alert for ready-to-eat ham salad products due to potential contamination with Listeria monocytogenes.

The contamination is linked to breadcrumbs recalled by Newly Weds Foods.

The affected products bear the USDA mark of inspection and should not be consumed. The scope is nationwide.

Risk:

Consumption of food contaminated with Lm can cause listeriosis, a serious infection that primarily affects older adults, persons with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women and their newborns. Listeriosis can cause fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance and convulsions sometimes preceded by diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms. An invasive infection spreads beyond the gastrointestinal tract. In pregnant women, the infection can cause miscarriages, stillbirths, premature delivery or life-threatening infection of the newborn. In addition, serious and sometimes fatal infections can occur in older adults and persons with weakened immune systems. Listeriosis is treated with antibiotics. Persons in the higher-risk categories who experience flu-like symptoms within two months after eating contaminated food should seek medical care and tell the health care provider about eating the contaminated food.

Impacted states: Nationwide

Products:

- RESER’S FINE FOODS Ham Salad
