Organic romaine hearts are being recalled in 15 states, including Indiana and Michigan.
Dole Fresh Vegetables, Inc. is voluntarily recalling a limited number of cases of the lettuce due to a possible risk from E. coli, which can cause diarrhea, severe stomach cramps and vomiting. Some illnesses can last longer and become more severe.
The products being recalled are:
- Dole Organic Romaine Hearts 3pk (UPC 0-71430-90061-1)
- Combined English/French packaging
- Harvested-On dates: 10-23-20 and 10-26-20
- Wild Harvest Organic Romaine Hearts (UPC 7-11535-50201-2)
- Harvested-On dates: 10-23-20 and 10-26-20.
The Harvested-On sticker is located on the upper right corner of each bag and the UPC code is located on the bottom right corner of the back of each bag.
Since recalled packages were harvested nearly four weeks ago, they should no longer be in stores, but may be in consumers’ homes.
The impact products were distributed in Arizona, Hawaii, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, North Carolina, North Dakota and Virginia.
So far, no illnesses have been reported.
If you own this product, throw it away immediately. Those with questions should call the Dole Consumer Center at 1-800-356-3111.
