Last week, we learned that vegetables produced by CRF Frozen foods and sold under national and store brands had been recalled due to possible contamination with Listeria monocytogenes, a dangerous foodborne pathogen. The company expanded the recall to include all frozen fruits and vegetables processed at its plant in Pasco, WA since May of 2014. That includes 358 different varieties of frozen fruits and veggies sold under 42 brand names sold in all 50 states. It’s a lot of food.
Frozen vegetables, after all, have a very long shelf life, and can lurk in customers’ home freezers for years after they were sold. Glance over the list of brand names in this post: if anything sounds familiar, check it against the original and expanded recall lists for the specific fruit or vegetable, brand, size, and finally production code of the product that you have.
If you have any questions about a product that you’ve purchased or about the recall in general, call CRF Frozen Foods at 844-483-3866.
