For the second time in three months, Lipari Foods has issued a Listeria recall, this time for Premo and Fresh Grab brand wedge sandwiches. No illnesses had been reported at the time of the recall, the company said. However, consumers who have purchased these products should not eat them as Listeria can cause serious illness and death. Among pregnant women, Listeria can cause miscarriage and stillbirth.
