Real Kosher Ice Cream Cups Possibly Caused Listeria Outbreaks In Several States

An unopened serving of the ice cream was taken from the home of one of the patients and it tested positive for the bacteria that causes a Listeria infection.

The FDA, the CDC and local health officials are investigating a Listeria outbreak in several states.

Two people have been hospitalized so far and both said they had eaten ‘Soft Serve on the Go Vanilla Chocolate Ice Cream Cups’, made by Real Kosher Ice Cream.

An unopened serving of the ice cream was taken from the home of one of the patients and it tested positive for the bacteria that causes a Listeria infection.

Real Kosher recalled all its ice cream and sorbet flavors in the 8-ounce cups. The company has also temporarily shut down production of the product until further investigation.

Consumers who have any of the products should throw them away or return them for a full refund.

The ice cream was sold in 19 states including North Carolina.
