What’s the Problem?
This recall affects all cases of Guan’s Mushroom Company’s 200g/7.05-ounce packages of Enoki Mushrooms, which were imported from South Korea and distributed from California, New York, and Pennsylvania in retail stores through produce distributors or wholesalers.
The recalled mushrooms were sold in clear plastic packaging with “Enoki Mushroom” printed in English, Korean, and French, and Guan’s logo in the front. The UPC code 859267007013 and package code 14-1 can be found on the back of the packaging, FDA said.
The potential contamination was found after testing revealed the presence of Listeria in 200 g packages of Enoki mushrooms. Guan’s Mushroom Company has ceased distribution of the product until an investigation into the source of contamination can be completed.
Anyone who had food poisoning symptoms after eating any of the recalled mushrooms should contact their doctor as soon as possible.
