A Bay Shore company is recalling two food items after listeria was found in its macaroni salad and tuna salad, the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets said.

Made Fresh Salads, Inc. located at 1249 St. Louis Ave, said it is recalling its 5 lb. containers & 30 lb. containers of "Macaroni Salad" and 5 lb. containers of "Tuna Deluxe Salad" because of the presence of listeria monocytogenes, an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, the elderly and those with weakened immune systems, a statement said.

While healthy people may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, listeria monocytogenes infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
