FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - July 27, 2012 - Cool Creations, LLC of North Kansas City, Missouri is recalling specific packages of products containing onions (see product list below), because it has the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.
