BURST(WHTM) — The Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has announced the recall of a frozen spinach product that was distributed nationwide.
Sno Pac Foods is recalling its Del Mar 35-pound Bulk Organic Frozen Spinach and Sno Pac 10-ounce Organic Frozen Cut Spinach because of possible listeria monocytogenes contamination, according to the FDA.
No illnesses have been reported to the Caledonia, Minnesota-based company in connection with the recalled spinach, which was sold in retail stores nationwide.
The product distributed in the 35-pound boxes has lot codes 250107A, 250107B, 250107C, 250107D, 2501071 and 2501073, with an expiration date of Jan. 7, 2027.
The 10-ounce packages have lot codes SPM1.190.5 with "best by" date of July 9, 2027; SPC1.160.5 and SPC2.160.5 with "best by" date of June 9, 2027, and SPM1.097.5 with "best by" date of April 7, 2027.
According to the FDA, production of the affected spinach has been suspended while the company investigates.
Listeria infections can cause serious illness, particularly in older adults, people with weakened immune systems and those who are pregnant or their newborns. Symptoms include fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance and convulsions.
Consumers who have purchased the affected Sno Pac or Del Mar spinach should dispose of it or return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.
