Tofu Recall Expands

Quong Hop & Co. of South San Francisco, Calif., is expanding its recall of tofu products that might be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, to include products coded with two additional dates.

Listeria is a microorganism that can cause serious or fatal infections in children, the elderly, or those with weakened immune systems. No illnesses have been reported in connection with the products, the company said.

On Tuesday, the company announced a recall of all packages of Soy Deli tofu coded Dec. 17, 2007. This recall also included three products coded Sept. 23, 2007: the 30-ounce Soy Deli nigari tofu, the 12-ounce Soy Deli water packed tofu and the 16-ounce Quong Hop water packed tofu.

The recall was expanded to include the 30-ounce Soy Deli nigari tofu coded Oct, 17, 2007 and the 12-ounce Soy Deli water packed tofu coded Oct. 9, 2007.

The products were distributed throughout the Midwest and the West Coast in supermarkets and natural food stores. Healthy adults who are infected with listeria can experience symptoms including high fever, severe headache, nausea and diarrhea.

If you or a loved one has been made sick by a recalled product in Philadelphia or anywhere in Pennsylvania, please contact the product liability attorneys at Pomerantz Perlberger & Lewis today to schedule your initial consultation.
