The recalled Enoki Mushroom product was distributed in CA to produce distributors or wholesalers for further distribution to retail stores.Listeria monocytogenes is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.

This recall is being made with the knowledge of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and CDPH. Consumers who have purchased 200g packages of Enoki are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
