The recalled products can be identified by UPC 2114003262 and a Best-By date of 4/5/2023. The products were recalled from the three supermarket chains after it was discovered that they may be contaminated with Listeria.ae0fcc31ae342fd3a1346ebb1f342fcb In many otherwise healthy people, consuming Listeria-contaminated foods may cause symptoms including diarrhea and fever, but can also cause confusion, convulsions, headaches, loss of balance, muscle aches, and a stiff neck in some individuals, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Listeria exposure is also known to cause miscarriage, pre-term birth, and stillbirth in pregnant people and may cause potentially fatal infections in newborns. Pregnant people, older adults, and immunocompromised individuals are at greater risk of developing severe symptoms or dying from eating Listeria-contaminated food. If you bought the potentially-contaminated shrimp, don’t eat it. Southeastern Grocers recommends that customers either throw the product away or return it to a local Winn-Dixie, Harveys, or Fresco y Mas for a full refund. If you have questions about the recall, contact Southeastern Grocers Customer Call Center at (866) 946-6349 on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. or on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. EDT.
