If you’ve bought certain hummus products from Walmart or Target recently, check your fridges. The container in your fridge may be getting recalled for potentially containing Listeria.

House of Thaller, a company that distributes various brands of hummus to Walmart, Target, HEB, and other grocery stores, recently issued a recall for three products that contained pine nuts contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. The three products are Fresh Foods Market “Artisan Hummus With Pine Nuts,” Lantana “White Bean Hummus With Pine Nut Topping,” and Marketside “Classic Hummus With Pine Nuts.” Marketside, coincidentally, is a signature brand for Walmart products. No other products from those brands are being affected by the recall.

Listeria monocytogenes, which has shown up in hummus products before, can cause food-borne poisoning symptoms ranging from diarrhea to meningitis and is the third-deadliest food pathogen in the country. It affects elderly, infant, and sicker populations more readily, and is known to cause miscarriages and stillbirths in pregnant women. Fortunately, no illnesses have yet to be reported from this particular hummus recall.

To be safe, however, if you do have one of the three aforementioned hummus products, check this FDA list of product codes and expiration dates and see if the label matches up to the hummus you’ve got in your fridge. If it does, you should refrain from eating it and call the House of Thaller Customer Service Center, Monday thru Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. CST at 855-215-5142, as soon as you possibly can.
