Endico Mixed Veggies Recall Lawsuit | 2025 Latest Updates

What’s the Problem?

On September 3, 2025, the FDA posted a recall by Endico Potatoes Inc. for 2.5-lb bags of Frozen Mixed Vegetables (lot 170625; produced June 17, 2025; use-by June 16, 2027) due to potential contamination with Listeria monocytogenes.

These products were distributed across seven jurisdictions—New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Maryland, Washington D.C., and Florida—between July 18 and August 4, 2025.

Listeria poses a serious threat to at-risk groups including pregnant individuals, infants, older adults, and the immunocompromised. While no illnesses were confirmed at the time of recall, affected consumers may seek legal recourse for medical follow-up, disposal costs, and emotional trauma related to exposure concerns.

At present, no class actions or individual lawsuits are known. However, our firm is actively evaluating potential claims on behalf of individuals who suffered exposure anxiety, incurred healthcare expenses, or incurred financial losses associated with the recall.
