ORLANDO, Fla., Sept. 29 (UPI) — Listeria, a bacteria capable of making people sick, was found in lettuce being sold at an Orlando grocery store, Florida agriculture officials announced.
Listeria has been linked to lettuce imported from California and sold at a Fresh Market store, WKMG-TV in Orlando reported Saturday. Store officials said late Friday the lettuce has been pulled and there had been no reports of illness.
"We will continue to monitor the situation to ensure our stores are taking all necessary precautions," Fresh Market said in a statement.
