The FDA said Supreme Cuts LLC of Mahwah, N.J., initiated the recall of the 12-ounce bags of corn because they might be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes -- a bacterium that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections.
The recalled product was sold in New Jersey and Massachusetts in clear plastic bags marked with a "best if used by" date of May 26, 2008, and lot number 5343.
