The FDA and CDC, state and local partners, investigated illnesses in a multistate outbreak of Listeria monocytogenes infections linked to Lyons Ready Care and Sysco Imperial frozen supplemental shakes manufactured by Prairie Farms from the Prairie Farms Dairy facility in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Residents in long-term care facilities were given frozen supplement shakes found to be contaminated with a strain of Listeria monocytogenes. The outbreak sickened at least 42 people, 41 were hospitalized, and led to 14 deaths. In response to this investigation, Lyons Magnus LLC (a food service industry provider headquartered in Fresno, California ) voluntarily recalled 4 oz. Lyons Ready Care and Sysco Imperial frozen supplemental shakes with best by dates of 022125 to 022126 (February 21, 2025 – February 21, 2026). At this time, no frozen supplemental shakes should be available on the market. States with Cases are AL, CA, CO, CT, FL, IL, IN, MD, MI, MN, MO, NC, NV, NY, OH, OK, PA, TN, TX, WA, and WV. Product Distribution: Nationwide. The products were not sold at retail stores, and none of the shakes should be available on the market. The CDC considers this outbreak over, and the FDA’s outbreak investigation is closed. @ https://www.fda.gov/food/outbreaks-foodborne-illness/outbreak-investigation-listeria-monocytogenes-frozen-supplemental-shakes-february-2025
