Listeria can cause flu like symptoms and even meningitis in severe cases
Shoppers warned do not eat bacteria infested cheddar cheese from Lidl
Lidl has issued an urgent recall of infected cheddar cheese over fears it can cause flu-like symptoms and severe infections to babies, the elderly and pregnant women.
Some Deluxe Sriracha Cheddar Cheese Wedges, sold in branches of the budget supermarket in Northern Ireland, were found to contain a dangerous bacteria called Listeria monocytogenes.
The batches of the spicy cheese being recalled have a best before date of May 5, Lidl said in posters being put up in affected stores.
