AVOCADOS RECALLED FOR POSSIBLE LISTERIA

-

Henry Avocado Corp. announced a voluntary recall because of the potential that the whole avocados could be contaminat­ed with listeria monocytoge­nes. The California-based company says it has taken this step out of “an abundance of caution” based on positive test results on environmen­tal samples taken during a routine government inspection. The company claims there are no reported illnesses associated with the recall. The avocados are sold in bulk at stores in Arizona, California, Florida, New Hampshire, North Carolina and Wisconsin.
