Frozen Vegetables Recalled For Possible Contamination

Mixed frozen vegetables are being recalled across the country due to a potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination.

CRF Frozen Foods of Pasco, Washington has voluntarily recalled over a dozen different frozen vegetable items that could be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.

Listeria monocytogenes is an organism that can sometimes cause fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly adults and anyone with a weakened immune system.

Listeria infection represents as high fever, nausea, severe headache, stiffness, abdominal pain and diarrhea and can cause miscarriages or stillbirths in pregnant women.

Listeria was found in the CRF Frozen Foods products during routine testing by health officials in Ohio and though no illnesses have been reported to date, the company immediately recalled all items that had the potential of being contaminated.
