Dole Recall – Multistate Outbreak of Listeriosis
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said one person in Michigan died and about a dozen others nationwide were sickened from a listeria outbreak linked to packaged salads from a Dole processing facility.
The salads were made in Springfield, Ohio, the CDC said.
The cases of illness were reported in six states, including Indiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. One-third of those cases happened in Michigan.
The CDC said the packaged salads made by Dole are the likely source of the outbreak. The salads are sold under several brands, including Dole, Fresh Selections, Simple Truth, Marketside, The Little Salad Bar and President’s Choice. The manufacturing code on the package starts with the letter “A.” The CDC says customers should not eat those bags.
