The U.S. Food & Drug Administration Has Recalled Frozen Spinach Due to Listeria.

Sno Pac Foods of Caledonia, MN, is recalling Del Mar 35 LB Bulk Organic Frozen Spinach and Sno Pac 10 oz Organic Frozen Cut Spinach because they have the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, an organism which can cause serious or sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
