Listeria infections can cause a number of symptoms and can sometimes be fatal in young children and the elderly. People with weak immune systems are also susceptible. Symptoms can include fever, headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Listeria infection can also cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.

The recall was ordered after a routine sampling done by the FDA found the presence of Listeria monocytogenes.

If you have purchased any of the recalled products you are encouraged to bring it back to the store from which it was purchased and get a full refund.

My Top 5 Favorite South Dakota Made Foods

As I was slicing a piece of cheese off my block of Dimock Dairy Colby cheese and boiling a ring of Bluebird Locker German sausage on the stove, I started thinking, "What foods is South Dakota known for?'

So, I decided to search my cupboards and refrigerator looking for other South Dakota-made foods and came up with my Top 5.
