Check your freezer. Some Kroger brand frozen vegetables were voluntarily recalled this week over possible Listeria contamination.
Twin City Foods Inc. of Stanwood, Washington, recalled the super sweet corn and mixed vegetables sold under Kroger, Food Lion and other brands nationwide, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced Wednesday.
Listeria monocytogenes is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, the elderly and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, but listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
To date there have been no reports of human illness, according to the FDA.
