Smoked Nova Salmon Recalled for Listeria Monocytogenes

Acme Smoked Fish Corporation is voluntarily recalling 564 pounds of Nova smoked salmon sold in Giant supermarkets because it may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. Testing by the Virginia Department of Agriculture found the bacteria in one package. No illnesses have been reported to date, but listeriosis, the illness caused by Listeria monocytogenes, can take up to 70 days to appear after exposure.

Clean your refrigerator with a mild bleach solution, since Listeria monocytogenes bacteria can grow at refrigerator temperatures.

Those symptoms include fever, severe headache, neck stiffness, and nausea. Pregnant women may only be mildly sick, with flu-like symptoms, but listeriosis can cause miscarriage, stillbirth, and infection in the newborn. If you ate this product and have experienced these symptoms, see your doctor immediately.
