The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has announced a recall of several batches of cooked ham from retail outlets nationwide. The recall comes after the detection of listeria monocytogenes, a bacteria that can cause serious health issues.
Consumers are advised to check their purchases and avoid consuming any of the affected products. Listeria infection can lead to severe illness, particularly in vulnerable groups such as pregnant women, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems.
The FSAI is working closely with retailers to ensure the removal of the contaminated batches from shelves. Customers who have purchased the ham are urged to return it to the point of sale for a refund.
The authority continues to monitor the situation and advises the public to stay informed about any further updates regarding food safety alerts.
