In a risk statement, the company explained that the products “might be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes”.
Listeria’s symptoms can be similar to flu and include high temperature, muscle ache or pain, chills, feeling or being sick and diarrhoea.
Some people are more vulnerable to the infection, such as those over 65s, pregnant women and babies less than one-month-old, as well as people with weakened immune systems.
