The recall was triggered by possible Listeria contamination: "Harvest equipment used in harvesting raw iceberg lettuce was tested by Dole and found to contain Listeria monocytogenes."

Consumers across the affected area should check product on hand. The recalling firm is based in Monterey, CA. The recall covers OH/CA Total Distributed Combined: 578,243 cases of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Mar 2, 2022), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved.
