After a routine random retail salad finished product test conducted by the US food and Drug Administration, it was found that a product of River Ranch Fresh Foods might be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, the company has now initiated a voluntary recall of retail and foodservice bagged salads.
The product in question has been in distribution nationwide under various brand names of River Ranch, Farm Stand, Hy-Vee, Marketside, Shurfresh, and The Farmer’s Market. All these products would now be recalled by the company as a preventive measure after traces of Listeria monocytogenes were found in one of its batch.
Infection from Listeria can be very harmful and can even lead to miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women. It can also pose fatal for people with weak immune like small children and elderly.
Although there have been no cases of reported of illnesses, the company is taking no chances. They are working closely with the Food & Drug Administration and California Department of Public Health to ensure that each and every product in that batch is taken off from the consumers’ hands. The company has urged the consumers not to consume it and have advised them to return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.
