Frozen Vegetables Recalled in Six States Over Listeria Concerns
A New York-based company has recalled several frozen vegetable products over possible listeria contamination, according to a report shared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Endico Potatoes Inc., based in Mount Vernon, N.Y., recalled its frozen peas and carrots and mixed vegetables after officials in Pennsylvania found that a sample tested positive for Listeria monocytogenes.
So far, no illnesses have been reported, the company said.
The recalled vegetables were sold between July 18 and Aug. 4 in:
-
New York
-
New Jersey
-
Pennsylvania
-
Connecticut
-
Maryland
-
Florida
-
Washington, D.C.
The products were packaged in 2.5-pound clear plastic bags with use-by dates of June 10, 2027, and June 16, 2027, according to the FDA.
Distribution has been stopped while the company investigates the source of the contamination.
Listeria monocytogenes is a bacteria that can cause serious illness, especially in people who are pregnant, older adults, newborns or those with weak immune systems, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Symptoms can include fever, fatigue, muscle aches, headache, confusion, loss of balance, stiff neck and seizures.
Those who purchased the recalled vegetables should not eat them and are urged to return the products to the store for a full refund.
