Listeria monocytogenes are organisms that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.
Healthy individuals may suffer some short-term symptoms including but not limited to high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea.
Listeria infection can also cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
With this, the firm recalled their "Not Fried Chicken" and "Life is Peachy" ice creams since the two were manufactured in the same room.
