The Centers for Disease Control says at least 55 other people have gotten sick from eating the contaminated fruit from Colorado-based grower Jensen Farms. The company's recalled cantaloupes shipped to stores earlier this month in Minnesota and 16 other states.

The Centers for Disease Control says at least 55 other people have gotten sick from eating the contaminated fruit which has been recalled in Minnesota and 16 other states. No deaths or illnesses have been reported in Minnesota.

The Food and Drug Administration believes the fruit is contaminated with listeria -- a bacteria that can lead to a life-threatening illness. More than two dozen people have gotten sick.

The FDA says they found the bacteria on the equipment at a Colorado farm -- the source of the tainted fruit. Twenty-five people have died and more than 120 others have been sickened in the outbreak.

Regulators have long imposed limits on harmful contaminants such as lead and mercury, but now they're taking a closer look at what they call "contaminants of emerging concern," such as those found in pharmaceuticals, bug spray and fragrances.

Thousands of cantaloupe are being recalled in Minnesota and 16 others states because they may be contaminated with listeria -- a bacteria that can sometimes lead to a life-threatening illness.

People wanting to ship Honeycrisps or SweeTangoes to friends and relatives in some western states will have to get through fruit-sniffing dogs first. The Minnesota Department of Agriculture warns people that California and four other states have quarantines that prohibit fruit without proper certification. Inspectors and trained dogs are in place to keep the fruit out to prevent infestations of bugs or plant diseases.
