Meijer said it is not aware of any illnesses from the Meijer brand salad products included in the recall.

Listeria can cause serious, sometimes fatal infections in young children, elderly people, and immunocompromised populations. Symptoms include a high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea.

A Listeria infection can also cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
People with these symptoms should seek immediate medical attention.
