Giant Microbes Listeria Plush Toy Original Soft Body Educational Gift 16cm

If you’re ever tempted to snack on something that’s a little past its sell-by date, maybe think twice… after all, you never know what might be lurking inside, waiting to strike! This Listeria Plush by Giant Microbes is a lifelike representation of a rare but dangerous bacterium, that infects people through contaminated food. Named after Dr Jospeh Lister, this bacterium often causes little more than some heavy food poisoning, but for pregnant women and vulnerable people, listeriosis infections can be very serious indeed… so take care with your food, and keep things chilled and clean!

Now, thanks to Giant Microbes, you can enjoy the presence of this gut-busting bacteria in your own home, without having to worry about being sent packing to the bathroom! This plush has a scientifically accurate design, and includes a card with more information on Listeria, making this the perfect gift for teachers, doctors, students, or anyone with a healthy sense of humour!

These Plushes measure approximately 16cm long
