"December 20, 2021, Orlando, FL – Fresh Express is recalling certain varieties of its branded and private label salad products produced at the company’s Streamwood, Illinois facility because the product has the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. This organism can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems."

Since we have a few Minglers from the affected States, I wanted to share this. I had purchased one of the products on the list and ended up with mild symptoms, mostly a tummy ache. I'm feeling fine now.

Best wishes to everyone, especially with Christmas being around the corner. Probably best to buy all separate ingredients if you plan on serving salad at your Holiday gatherings. :heart:
