All of the UPC and lot numbers for the recalled products can be found on the recall notice via the FDA website. The recall is exclusive to the aforementioned products and only Give & Go products sold within the U.S. are affected.
According to the recall notice, the products are being pulled from the market because they may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. Among otherwise healthy individuals, listeria typically causes flu-like symptoms that resolve quickly without treatment, including abdominal pain, diarrhea, fever, nausea, severe headaches, and stiffness.
However, listeria infections can sometimes be fatal among young children, elderly individuals, and the immunocompromised. Listeria infections have also been linked to both miscarriages and stillbirths in pregnant individuals.
Due to the serious nature of the potential contamination, Give & Go advises, that, "Consumers who have these products should immediately dispose of the products and not eat them."
For more information about the recall, you can contact Give & Go 24 hours a day at 844-366-1171; customer relations professionals will be available to respond to calls on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. EST.
