An establishment located in Chicago, Illinois, is currently issuing a recall for roughly 1,100 pounds of beef products filled with stuffing due to possible contamination with Listeria monocytogenes, a foodborne bacterium that can be life-threatening. These beef items were distributed on March 20, 2012, and delivered to an exclusive distributor in Detroit, Michigan. Indications of infection from listeria (listeriosis) can consist of muscle pains, high temperature, feeling nauseous, and diarrhea.

  • 2-lb. vacuum-packed packages containing two, 10-inch pieces of “KUBBA OF WHEAT.”
  • 20-lb. cases, each containing 10, 2-lb. packages of “KUBBA OF WHEAT.”

Listeria Food Poisoning & Pregnancy

According to the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), pregnant women are 20 times more likely to contract listeriosis than other healthy adults. In fact, nearly 20% of listeriosis cases reported are in expecting mothers.

However, pregnant women do not typically exhibit telltale signs of the illness, and usually only report mild, flu-like symptoms. Instead, babies of mothers with listeria food poisoning most often bear the brunt of the sickness. Sadly, between 50 and 90% of infected fetuses that are delivered prematurely do not survive.
