--- title: "Listeria – Dole Fresh Lettuce Recalled" date: 2012-10-17T12:00:46-07:00 author: Bill Marler canonical_url: "https://marlerclark.com/news_events/listeria-dole-fresh-lettuce-recalled" section: News --- [All News](/news_events) / # Listeria – Dole Fresh Lettuce Recalled Dole Fresh Vegetables is voluntarily recalling a limited number of cases of Dole American Blend salad in 12 oz. bags, coded A275208A or B, with Use-by date of October 17 and UPC 7143000933, due to a possible health risk from Listeria monocytogenes. Dole Fresh Vegetables is coordinating closely with regulatory officials. No illnesses have been reported in association with the recall. The product code and Use-by date are in the upper right-hand corner of the package; the UPC code is on the back of the package, below the barcode. The salads were distributed in 10 U.S. states (Illinois, Indiana, Maine, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Wisconsin). No illnesses have been reported in association with the recall. This precautionary recall notification is being issued due to an isolated instance in which a sample of Dole American Blend salad yielded a positive result for Listeria monocytogenes in a random sample test conducted by the Tennessee Department of Agriculture. Dole Fresh Vegetables customer service representatives are already contacting retailers and are in the process of confirming that the recalled product is being removed from the stream of commerce. ### Other Listeria Lawsuits [Clover Hill Dairy Cheese sickens 12 with Listeria -
