A batch of organic spinach that tested positive for Listeria has triggered a number of recalls this week. Consumers who have purchased frozen spinach or products containing frozen spinach recently should check recall information carefully and discard recalled products as Listeria can cause serious illness and death. Illnesses associated with these products had not been reported at the time of the recalls, however listeriosis can take up to 70 days to develop.
Symptoms of an infection include: high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Children, seniors, pregnant women and those with weakened immune systems are most at risk. Listeriosis can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
