Why This Matters

Eating food contaminated by Listeria can cause serious illness, particularly for children, the elderly, pregnant individuals, and those with weakened immune systems. Common Listeriosis symptoms include fever, muscle or joint aches, headache, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, chills, stiff neck, fatigue, confusion, loss of balance, and seizures. Symptoms can start a few days to weeks after consuming adulterated food.

If you’ve experienced Listeria symptoms after consuming turkey bacon, you should immediately seek medical attention and preserve any packaging or remaining product as evidence.
