(RTTNews) - TreeHouse Foods, Inc. (THS), Tuesday announced the expansion of voluntary recall of waffle and pancake products due to the potential of listeria monocytogenes contamination.

The announcement was based on additional testing at the manufacturing facility.

The impacted products were distributed throughout all states and provinces within the United States and Canada, and were sold through most retail shops.

The potential risk could cause serious infections in children, elderly people and others with weakened immune systems. It can cause short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea in healthy individuals.

However, no confirmed illness reports have been registered so far.

The company has advised customers to dispose or return the recalled product to the place of purchase for credit.

Currently, TreeHouse's stock is trading at $39.51, down 1.86 percent on the New York Stock Exchange.
