Sainsbury’s are taking the precautionary action of recalling all date codes of Taste the Difference Spanish Chorizo Iberico Ring because Listeria monocytogenes has been found in some of the products. The recalled products were distributed in the United Kingdom.
The affected product is:
- Taste the Difference Spanish Chorizo Iberico Ring, Pack size: (200g), Use by: All dates from 23 November 2023 up to and including 16 January 2024
If you have bought any of this product do not eat it. Instead, return it to the store from where it was bought for a full refund.
Symptoms caused by this organism can be similar to flu and include high temperature, muscle ache or pain, chills, feeling or being sick and diarrhoea. However, in rare cases, the infection can be more severe, causing serious complications, such as meningitis. Some people are more vulnerable to listeria infections, including those over 65 years of age, pregnant women and their unborn babies, babies less than one month old and people with weakened immune systems.
In case you are experiencing Listeria monocytogenes symptoms it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.
