Oh no! Another company contaminated with Listeria has recalled ALL of it's products in more than a dozen states and foreign locations also. The states involved are Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Wyoming and international locations. The production plants involved are in Oklahoma and Texas. Listeria is the new "IT" bacteria that has been causing deaths and infections all over the country. First it was lettuce a few months ago and then it was strawberries, and now it's ice cream. It seems to me like someone is going around and deliberately spiking these foods to cause harm to the general public. So far with this outbreak 3 people in Kansas have died and 5 others in Kansas and Texas have been infected with Listeriosis and suffered from the effects of the bacteria.
Listeria primarily effects pregnant women and their babies as well as seniors, and people with compromised immune systems.
Blue Bell is promising to implement new testing measures and increased education for it's employees and blah blah. I say they are a dollar late and a day short. I will never buy their products again. Just like with Foster Farms had the salmonella outbreak months ago. I stopped buying their chicken and I will NEVER buy it again. They cannot be trusted. Sorry!
