Golden Medal Mushroom Inc. has recalled 36 cartons of Enoki Mushrooms (brand Xuerong) in 200g (7.05-ounce) packages because they may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. The contamination was discovered after sampling by the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development. The affected mushrooms were distributed in Illinois and are packaged in clear plastic within brown cardboard master cases. If you have purchased these mushrooms, you should return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
Listeria monocytogenes was detected in the product, which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, 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 the infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
Full refund at place of purchase
