Can dogs transfer the bacteria to their owners?

It is possible that dogs who do not show symptoms but have been exposed to the bacteria can transfer it to their human companions.

People who handle the affected food and don't thoroughly wash their hands afterward are also at risk of being exposed to the bacteria.

What to do with the recalled product

The product should be "thrown out or destroyed in a way that children, pets, and wildlife cannot access it," according to the FDA.

People should do the following:

• Avoid touching the recalled food with bare hands
• Sanitize areas that came in contact with the food
• Wear gloves or use paper towels to place food in a sealed bag before throwing it away
