Cooked ham products recalled due to listeria concerns - FSAI
The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has issued a recall notice today (Tuesday, June 30) for certain batches of cooked ham products.
The authority said that the products are being recalled due to the possible presence of listeria monocytogenes.
The FSAI said that recall notices will be displayed at point-of-sale.
The FSAI advised consumers not to eat the implicated batches.
Retailers are also being requested to remove the implicated batches from sale and display recall notices at point-of-sale.
The implicated batches, sold under the Brady Family, Deluxe and Tesco Finest brands, are as follows:

According to the FSAI, symptoms of listeria monocytogenes infection can include mild flu-like symptoms, or gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea.
"In rare cases, the infection can be more severe, causing serious complications.
"Some people are more vulnerable to Listeria monocytogenes infections, including pregnant women, babies, and people with weakened immune systems, including the elderly.
"The incubation period (time between initial infection and first symptoms appearing) is on average 3 weeks but can range between 3 and 70 days," the authority said.
