This is a sad story. I’m not quite grasping why they have to layoff. Didn’t they just pull the bad batches from stores?

It's no great mystery for me, and I had never heard of Bluebell before this event.

The fundamental cause was neglect of conditions and procedures that allowed the invasion of Listeria.
That this element of the event is not discussed is extremely significant to me.

Short description : unsanitary conditions and procedures.

That creates a HUGE task.

Bad management I guess. What a shame for the workers.
