US Recalls Smoked Sausage, Chicken Coxinhas Over Listeria Concerns
Some ready-to-eat sausage and chicken snacks are being taken off the shelves because they might have a sneaky germ called Listeria.
This germ can make people sick, especially those who are pregnant, older, or have weak immune systems.
Listeria can grow even in the cold, which makes it tricky.
The affected sausage was sold in a few states, and the chicken snacks were sent to multiple states.
If someone eats food with Listeria, they could get sick days or weeks later.
It is important to be careful with ready-to-eat foods to avoid getting sick.
Bourgeois Smokehouse recalled approximately 100 pounds of smoked sausage.
Snack Mania Brazilian Delights Corp. recalled 9,722 pounds of chicken coxinhas.
The sausage was sold in Rouses Market retail locations across three states.
The chicken products were sold across several states.
The recalls are due to potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination.
