They were sold in vending machines and retail stores in Connecticut, the District of Columbia, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Virginia.

Listeria is a foodborne bacterial disease that is often contracted by eating poorly processed sausages and unpasteurized dairy products, according to the Mayo Clinic website.

It rarely affects healthy adults and children, but it can have serious side effects for pregnant women, infants, immunosuppressed people, and adults over 65 years of age.

The Mayo Clinic advises watching for symptoms such as fever, muscle aches, nausea or diarrhea after consuming contaminated food.
