The Hill reports:

Yu Shang Food, Inc. is recalling more than 70,000 pounds of its ready-to-eat meat and poultry products because of a listeria outbreak that has sickened at least 11 people, including one baby who subsequently died.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service said it discovered the problem on Oct. 21, 2024, during routine testing of finished product. Officials then confirmed the product was positive for Listeria monocytogenes, which was subsequently detected in additional testing.

The FSIS is working with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and other regulatory and public health officials in several states to investigate the listeria outbreak.
