Health officials in Maryland discovered the bacteria in the liverwurst and believe it could be related to a recent outbreak of L. monocytogenes infections. The USDA says more testing is required to determine if Boar's Head's product is behind the outbreak
Listeriosis can cause fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance and convulsions, sometimes preceded by diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms, according to the USDA. The infection can cause serious health concerns in people who are pregnant, over age 65 or have weakened immune systems.
Consumers who purchased the recalled deli products are urged to throw them away or return them to the store. They should also clean out their refrigerators to avoid cross-contaminating other food.
