Frozen Spinach Recall
This just happened.
https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-m...f-spinach-16oz Frozen spinach possibly infected by listeria. Fortunately, the frozen spinach I buy is not from Sprouts so I'm not going to panic. Sprouts Recalls the following products: "Sprouts Frozen Cut Leaf Spinach, 16oz. bag, UPC 87487500982, Lot 19031203A03, USE BY 12/03/21. Identifying information can be found on the back of the package." "Sprouts Frozen Organic Cut Leaf Spinach, 16oz. bag, UPC 87487500991, Lot 19031203A03, USE BY 12/03/21. Identifying information can be found on the back of the package" Further: "The recall is due to random sampling which revealed the finished products contained the bacteria. Sprouts Farmers Market has removed all affected product from its retail stores. In addition, Sprouts is conducting an internal investigation with National Frozen Foods to ensure all food safety standards and being met and enforced. Consumers who have purchased the products are urged to destroy or return it to the stores for a full refund of the product. Consumers with questions may contact the company at 1 (888) 577-7688 from 8am to 5pm PST" Jill |

Indicating that the traditional could very well be the same as the organic, just one was a higher price tag. I've suspected as much in recent years. It's not practical for farms to have both organic and non-organic fields. -sw |

Now we can debate whether organic spinach is still organic if it was washed in water previously used to wash conventional spinach. Cindy Hamilton |

Instead of announcing a brand recall, the recall should include all other labels made in that specific factory. |
