Butternut Squash Trays Voluntarily Recalled By Pero Family Farms Food Company LLC Due To Possible Contamination With Listeria
On the 15th of January 2021, Pero Family Farms Food Company LLC announced a voluntary recall of their Butternut Squash Trays, due to the possibility that their product may be contaminated with Listeria Monocytogenes. As Ron Simon, a National Food Poisoning Lawyer, stated, “Listeria monocytogenes can cause Listeriosis, a potentially serious and at times fatal infection that has a higher risk of affecting young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.” While individuals with healthy immune systems may only briefly experience symptoms such as nausea, fever, and stiffness, pregnant women are the most susceptible to Listeriosis- which may cause stillbirth or miscarriages among expectant mothers.
