CHEYENNE (WNE) — According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Braga Fresh is issuing a precautionary advisory about washed and ready-to-eat Marketside Broccoli Florets. The product has a best-if-used-by date of Dec. 10, 2024.
The product was distributed to select stores in Wyoming. It is past its best-if-used-by date and is no longer in stores.
However, if consumers have frozen the item for later use, they should discard it, according to a news release from Cheyenne Laramie County Public Health.

Healthy individuals may only experience short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea.
Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
