  • The recall includes 71 products under Boar’s Head and Old Country brand names, produced at the Jarratt, Virginia facility.
  • Listeria monocytogenes was found in an unopened package of liverwurst sold in Maryland, prompting the recall.
  • Consumers are advised to discard or return the recalled products for a full refund.
  • Listeria infection can cause severe illness, particularly in pregnant women, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems.
  • Boar's Head has paused operations at the affected facility and expressed sympathies to affected families.
