Spinach is blanched before freezing. Blanching, if done correctly, would eliminate the Listeria. The issue is with post-blanching contamination. Listeria is a known environmental bacterial pathogen that can become established in processing facilities. If not controlled, it can contaminate the spinach after blanching in the freezing and packing steps.
While cooking by the consumer would eliminate the pathogen, spinach is often used in dips and other products such as spinach smoothies where there may be little or no heating. There is an increasing trend of using spinach in these RTE applications. This poses a problem for those facilities that are built for RTE level of processing.
There have been no reported illnesses.

Carmel Food Group Recalls 3 Frozen Ravioli Items under Rising Moon Organics label – Due to Possible Health Risk

Consumer:
510-429-0356
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — March 24, 2015 — Hayward, CA. Carmel Food Group today issued a voluntary recall of certain Rising Moon Organics frozen Ravioli items, because of possible presence of Listeria monocytogenes.
The frozen ravioli products were produced with organic spinach which was found in test results performed by the spinach supplier to show the presence of Listeria. The recall was initiated when it was discovered that certain lots of the listed items were produced with the ingredient in question.
Listeria monocytogenes is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriage and stillbirths among pregnant women.
Although the company is not aware of illnesses associated with this product, we are taking this precautionary action. Items & Sell By dates included in the recall are listed in the table:
