Sprouts Farmers Market is recalling its Frozen Cut Leaf Spinach due to listeria concerns.

The recall affects both the regular and organic 16-ounce bags.

According to the the U.S. Food and Drug Administration , the product was distributed at locations in Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, Colorado, Texas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia.

"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 miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women," the FDA said.

No illnesses have been reported.
