Dole Fresh Vegetables, Inc. is voluntarily recalling from the market certain Dole-branded and private label packaged salads processed at its Springfield, OH and Soledad, CA production facilities.
The affected products contain iceberg lettuce and present a possible health risk linked to potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination.
No other Dole products, including fresh fruit and field-packed fresh vegetables, are part of these voluntary recalls and are safe to consume.
Dole retailers have been advised to check store shelves and warehouse inventories to confirm that no recalled product is available for purchase by consumers.
Retailer and consumer questions about the voluntary recalls should be directed to the Dole Consumer Response Center at 800-356-3111, Monday-Friday, 8:00am to 3:00pm Pacific Time.
Dole Fresh Vegetables is coordinating closely with regulatory officials.
