MERIDIAN, Texas (AP) - Texas-based Double B Foods is recalling about 98,000 pounds of frozen sausage roll products because of concerns about listeria contamination.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture says the frozen sausage rolls were produced between October 25th and November 6th.

In addition to being sold in Texas, the products were distributed to institutions, catalog sales and distribution centers in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oklahoma and Pennsylvania.

The company says there have been no reports of illness.

Consumption of food containing Listeria monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, a rare but potentially fatal disease. It's particularly dangerous for babies or people with weakened immune systems.

Symptoms include fever, headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea.

Consumers with questions may call 254-435-6575.
