Food contaminated with listeria may not appear spoiled but can still cause illness.<\/p>\n

Symptoms can include vomiting, nausea, persistent fever, muscle aches and severe headaches.<\/p>\n

Health officials say pregnant women, older adults and people with weakened immune systems are at higher risk of serious complications.<\/p>\n

No illnesses have been reported yet.<\/p>\n
