Pero Family Farms Butternut Squash Trays are being recalled for possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination. No illnesses have been reported to date in connection with this problem.

Wash your hands with soap and water after handling.

You should then clean your refrigerator with a mild bleach solution after you discard these products. Use 1 tablespoon liquid chlorine bleach to 1 gallon of warm water.
