What’s the Problem?
According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration [1], the recalled cauliflower was imported from China and distributed in Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and Wisconsin. The recalled product is:
Product Description | Lot Codes | UPC Code |
---|---|---|
16 oz. TJ Farms Cauliflower | 2077890089 | 75544000604-3 |
“Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women,” FDA said.
The affected lot code and UPC are located on the back panel lower left corner of the bag.
This recall was initiated after a sample of cauliflower yielded a positive result for Listeria monocytogenes in a random sample test conducted by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture.
If you purchased any cauliflower that is affected by this recall, you should not eat it, and either discard it or return it to the point of purchase for a refund.
Anyone concerned about a potential food poisoning illness should contact their healthcare provider immediately.
