What this recall means for you

Listeria is a bacterium that thrives at refrigerator temperatures and contaminates deli meats, soft cheeses, prepared salads, and produce. Pregnant women face a 10–20x higher risk of infection. Symptoms include fever, muscle aches, and fatigue.

What to do next

  • Pregnant women should avoid deli meats unless heated to 165°F before eating
  • Check deli counter products against active Listeria recalls before purchase
  • Use opened luncheon meats within 3–5 days and unopened within 2 weeks of 'best by' date
  • If you experience fever and muscle aches after eating deli products, contact your doctor
  • Pregnant women should inform doctors immediately if they consumed a recalled deli product
  • Keep refrigerator temperature below 40°F (4°C) to slow but not prevent Listeria growth
