These beans may potentially be contaminated with Listeria bacteria, and the affected products are more than a year old. Freezing doesn’t kill Listeria, and it causes an illness that can potentially cause severe illness, death, stillbirths, or miscarriages. No one has reported any illnesses, and the contamination was found when one package was tested.
Here’s what you need to look for: recalled packages will have “better if used by” dates of 10APR2016 and 11APR2016. They were manufactured in March 2014, and sold nationwide sometime after that.
Consumers should throw away the frozen beans and call Cascadian Farms for replacement veggies at 1-800-624-4123. You can also call that number if you have any questions about products you own or about this recall.
