All of the UPC and numbers for the recalled food products can be found on the recall notice at the Food and Drug Administration website.

This Food and Drug Administration food recall is exclusive to the products mentioned, and only food products within the United States at Walmart stores.

The Food and Drug Administration recalled food products are being recalled because they may be contaminated with listeria. Listeria!

So what happens if you consume food contaminated with listeria? Among otherwise

healthy individuals, listeria typically causes flu like symptoms. Contaminated foods could cause stomach pain, diarrhea, fever, nausea, severe headaches, and stiffness. I have been a little stiff lately.

The Food and Drug Administration warns that serious listeria infections can sometimes be fatal in young children, elderly individuals, and others. You now have my total and complete attention FDA.

Due to the serious nature of the contamination, the Food and Drug Administration advises consumers who have these products to immediately dispose of them and not eat them. I could not enjoy them now anyway.

For more information  the FDA says recall specifics are available by calling #844-366-1246.
