Ice cream sold in Florida linked to listeria outbreak that killed 1, sickened at least 23, CDC says

A listeria outbreak that killed one person and sickened 23 others across the U.S. has been linked to an ice cream brand sold in Florida, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Anyone who has products from Big Olaf Creamery, which is based in Sarasota, should throw them away, the CDC said.

In addition to removing the ice cream from your home, people should clean areas, containers and serving utensils that may have touched the products, the CDC said in a statement Saturday.

The CDC recommended similar guidance for retail locations that sell Big Olaf ice cream, and encouraged them to stop selling the products "until further notice."
