Listeria can lead to serious illness and can even be fatal.

Symptoms to look out for include headaches, fevers, changes in your mental status, difficulty walking and seizures.

The most common way listeria spreads is through food, but it can also spread through cross-contamination.

The CDC recommends reheating deli meat, cold cuts, hot dogs and fermented sausages.
