Two Food Recalls You Need to Know about Right Now

When shopping for groceries this week, you’ll want to be extra careful—per recent food-safety warnings issued by the U.S. FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION (FDA), TWO SEPARATE RECALLS are currently in effect. Though no resulting illnesses have been reported as of this writing, the FDA is advising consumers to throw away or return all affected products for a full refund.

First up, look out for some varieties of baby spinach and mesclun leafy greens from SATUR FARMS, of Cutchogue, New York. On Jan. 23, 2019, Satur Farms voluntarily recalled specific lot numbers of these greens because of possible Salmonella contamination. This was identified after routine product sampling performed by the Florida Department of Agriculture and New York Department of Agriculture, the two states in which the items were distributed to retailers. You’ll want to keep an eye out for the following batches: Spinach Lot #18494, Spinach Lot #18513, and Mesclun Lot #18520.

The affected retail products have been packaged in plastic clamshell containers labeled with the Satur Farms brand name, in 5-ounce, 10-ounce, and 16-ounce sizes. The food-service versions of these products are packed in sealed poly bags of various sizes (more information on those sizes can be found HERE)…Click Here
