Design Defect & Hazard Analysis

The discovery of Listeria in ready-to-eat produce signals a breakdown in Salad and Go’s quality control and sanitation processes. Listeria is known for surviving refrigeration and can spread across production lines. These failures form the basis for legal claims under negligence, strict liability, breach of implied warranty, and failure to warn.

Injuries & Side Effects

• Mild to severe illness: Fever, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain.
• Invasive listeriosis: Symptoms like headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance, potentially leading to meningitis or sepsis.

• Hospitalization: Case reports show high hospitalization rates in similar outbreaks.
