Euphoria Fancy Food Inc., of Brooklyn, New York, has issued a voluntary recall for Capitan K slightly-salted salmon pieces after a random sample tested positive for Listeria monocytogenes.

No illnesses have been reported to date, but infections with Listeria can be very serious or deadly. Pregnant women may suffer a miscarriage, stillbirth, or infection of the newborn baby.
Healthy adults may develop symptoms such as a high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, or diarrhea.
The problem was discovered after a random sample tested positive for Listeria monocytogenes bacteria, according to the New York State Department of Agriculture and Market Food Inspector.
