How Does Listeria Get Into Food?

According to the Department of Public Health and Diseases 2021 research, listeria monocytogenes bacteria live in the intestines of many animals without causing them to get sick. As a result, the bacteria can easily spread to meat and dairy products [2].

Listeria can be killed by cooking and other heating methods, such as pasteurization, used to produce ready-to-eat foods. However, ready-to-eat food can become tainted after processing or at any point from the plant to your plate.

Outbreaks of listeria food poisoning have been linked to many ready-to-eat foods including hot dogs, lunch meats, cold cuts, fermented or dry sausage, and other deli-style meat and poultry. In the home, Listeria can be killed by reheating ready-to-eat foods to steaming hot.
