Listeria concerns prompt multiple salad kit recalls.
Fresh Express is recalling three varieties of branded and private-label salad kit products produced at the company’s Morrow, GA, facility because of a possible health risk from Listeria monocytogenes. The recalled products are no longer available for sale and no illnesses have been confirmed as of April 7. The recall was initiated when a random sample test of a single salad kit yielded a positive result for the Listeria pathogen. The recalled salad items were distributed through retailers in the states of Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. Consumers who might still have the recalled products in their refrigerators should discard and not consume them.
