The hummus, which is sold here, has a best before date of September 16th, 2018.

Listeria bacteria was found in the product.

Listeria infection can cause an illness like the flu. It can be dangerous for a number of groups including pregnant women, unborn babies and new babies and people who are unwell.

Other symptoms include vomiting and diarrhoea in affected people.

The authority says point-of-sale recall notices will be displayed in stores that sold the batch in question.
