Kosher First LLC., 502 Flushing Ave., is recalling Tuv Taam Salads Nova Lox Salad due to Listeria monocytogenes contamination, the FDA announced today.

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 persons 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.
