Dole Salad Listeria Recall – Hundreds Of Salads Infected With Deadly Listeria Monocytogenes…

Dole Recalls Its Salad Products Processed In Two Of Its Plants Due To Fears Of Listeria-Related Infection

Food giant Dole recently announced a recall for more than a hundred salad products under its own brand and other private labels due to fears that they may contain a deadly microorganism, Listeria. 

Salads With Listeria 

According to a recall notice released by Dole via the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) official site, it has decided to pull out a plethora of salad products processed at its Yuma, Arizona and Bessemer City, North Carolina processing plants for possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination. 

In addition, what pushed the food behemoth to issue a product recall is findings from official reports from the FDA and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) linking 16 cases of Listeria-related cases to Dole’s salads that have gone through the two abovementioned facilities. 

Individuals infected by Listeria may experience diarrhea and fever. Figures from the CDC suggest that around 260 people die annually from Listeria-related exposure. 

Groups that are said to be the most vulnerable to the worst impacts of the infection range from pregnant women and their children, very young children, seniors with ages of 65 and up, and those who have a compromised immune system. 

Besides the Dole Salad Listeria Recall, Dole has said that it is going to temporarily shut down the abovementioned facilities to make way for extensive cleaning and disinfection.
