While healthy individuals may experience short-term symptoms such as fever, severe headaches, and gastrointestinal issues, Listeria infections can have grave consequences, including miscarriages and stillbirths in pregnant women.
Dakota Tom’s Sandwiches from Corsica, SD, has announced a voluntary recall of its Pepperjack Cheeseburger, Bacon Cheeseburger, and The Gambler sandwiches. This action comes after an outside supplier, BrucePac, issued a recall due to potential contamination with Listeria monocytogenes in the burger patties.
