PURCHASE, N.Y. and QUINCY, Mass., March 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Following a recall by Dole Fresh Vegetables, Inc., The Stop & Shop Supermarket Company LLC announced it removed from sale Dole Italian Blend Salad Mix due to the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.

Stop & Shop has received no reports of illnesses to date. Listeria is a common organism found in nature. Consumption of food contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, an uncommon but potentially fatal disease. Healthy people rarely contract listeriosis.
