A NEW LISTERIA SCARE

Oregon grocers say not to worry about the deadliest food-borne outbreak in decades in the U.S.—that the cantaloupes from the Jensen farm in Colorado tainted with listeria bacteria are not in the fruit bins at your store in Oregon.  But, before you get too comfortable, consider this: a California company has recalled bags of chopped romaine lettuce because it, too, may be contaminated with deadly listeria.  The brand name is “True Leaf Farms”.  The farm in Salinas, California shipped at least 90  cartons of bagged romaine lettuce to an Oregon distributor.  It has a sell-by date of September 29th.  If you have any, throw it away.
