Plain-language summary

by FoodRecallsDB.info

What happened

Albertsons and Safeway recalled Premium Vegetable Trays because the vegetables came from a supplier that recalled their product due to potential contamination with Listeria monocytogenes, a bacteria that can cause illness. About 2,707 trays were affected and sold in eight western states and Hawaii.

Who is at risk

Everyone should be concerned, but pregnant women, young children, elderly people, and those with weakened immune systems are at higher risk of serious illness from Listeria.

What to do

If you bought a Premium Vegetable Tray (2 lb. 14 oz., UPC 24210800000) from Albertsons or Safeway in the affected states, do not eat it—throw it away or return it to the store for a refund. Contact your doctor if you develop fever, muscle aches, or gastrointestinal symptoms after eating this product.
