California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Director Dr. Karen Smith warned consumers today not to eat certain batch codes of Santa Barbara Smokehouse’s cold-smoked salmon because these products may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, which can lead to severe illness or death.
CDPH and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are currently investigating Santa Barbara Smokehouse in Santa Barbara, California, due to bacteriologic contamination found in the processing facility and in a packaged sample of smoked salmon.
Santa Barbara Smokehouse has initiated a voluntary recall of all cold-smoked salmon manufactured at its Santa Barbara facility between March 1, 2015 and April 8, 2015, after learning about Listeria monocytogenes contamination in a product surveillance sample and environmental samples collected at the processing facility. No illnesses have been associated with the recalled products at this time.
Redwood Hill Farm & Creamery has recalled its raw goat milk feta because test results indicated the presence of listeria, the company said Friday.
The product was sold at two Marin retail outlets, Cowgirl Creamery in Pt. Reyes Station and Good Earth Natural Foods in Fairfax. The containers are labeled Raw Goat Milk Feta – Redwood Hill on the store labels, with Lot Code #14000610.
No illnesses have been reported.
