Dole Recalls Listeria-Riddled Bagged Salad After 2 Sickened, 1 Dies
Health officials have finally been able to pinpoint the source of a Listeria outbreak that sickened 12 people and killing 1.
Dole Food Co. announced that its fresh vegetable unit suspended production at an Ohio plant where the pathogen was detected, and is recalling packaged salads produced there. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said the outbreak occurred last summer, but people should throw out any packaged salads produced at the facility, just to be cautious.
