There are no reports of illnesses associated with these products.

According to the USDA, contaminated salads could cause listeriosis. Older adults, people with weakened immune systems and pregnant women and their fetuses or newborns are most at risk. The infection produces symptoms including headaches, muscle aches, stiff neck, fever, confusion, loss of balance and convulsions sometimes preceded by diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms. These can become serious and even fatal in older adults or people with weakened immune systems. In pregnant women, listeriosis can result in miscarriages, stillbirths, premature delivery or a life-threatening infection to the newborn.
