The FDA has made an “immediate release” yesterday regarding Bonduelle USA Inc. recalling over 9,335 cases of frozen corn.
They’re saying that there is a potential contamination of Listeria Monocytogenes that can be fatal in small children and in elderly people or people with weakened immune systems.
Listera infection can also cause miscarriages and still births among pregnant women too…
Luckily for TEXAS, the frozen corn was distributed the following states: New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Massachusetts, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Florida, Mississippi and Louisiana.
Here is a listing of the frozen corn that was distributed:
