A food poisoning outbreak tied to deli meat and cheese has sickened 16 people, including one who died, U.S. health officials said Wednesday.
Most were hospitalized and one illness resulted in the loss of a pregnancy, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The illnesses date back to April last year with the most recent report on Sept. 29, the agency said.
Many reported eating meat or cheese from deli counters where investigators detected listeria in open packages of sliced meats and in the environment. The bacteria was found at two NetCost Market locations in New York, but health officials said that’s not likely the only source of the listeria outbreak because some sick people didn’t shop at the store.
Those sickened were from New York, Maryland, Massachusetts, Illinois, New Jersey and California. The death was reported in Maryland, the CDC said.

I see it’s only blue states affected....probably a MAGA terrorist attack ;)
“...one illness resulted in the loss of a pregnancy...”
I guess since the Baby Killers can’t get their daily fix of murder anymore, they’ve resorted to poisoning pregnant mothers. ;)
Reminds me of that anonymous quote,
“If I could live my life over, I would live over a deli” might not be such a good idea.
Now that’s funny! You win the thread!
As Meats get more and more expensive, look for Stores to try to make use of every bit of it, even if it is out of date.
There goes the deli meat.

Isn’t true that deli meat in New York city is really made from rats?... : )
