# Major Recall Alert: Frozen Spinach Recalled Due to Potential to Be Contaminated with Listeria Monocytogenes
Sno Pac Foods has issued a nationwide recall of its Del Mar 35 LB Bulk Organic Frozen Spinach and Sno Pac 10 oz Organic Frozen Cut Spinach. These products have the potential to be contaminated with *Listeria monocytogenes*, a harmful organism that can cause severe health issues, particularly in high-risk populations. Here’s all you need to know about this important safety notice.
## Why This Recall is Important
*Listeria monocytogenes* contamination poses a serious risk to public health. Although healthy individuals may only experience short-term symptoms like fever, headache, nausea, and abdominal pain, *Listeria* infections can have grave consequences for certain groups, including:
- **Pregnant women:** Potential to cause miscarriages or stillbirths.
- **Children, elderly, and immunocompromised individuals:** At risk for severe or fatal infections.
Even though no illnesses have been reported at this time, this recall is being issued out of an abundance of caution to protect public safety. The products under recall were distributed nationwide, so it's crucial for consumers to check their freezers immediately.
