Comments Off on Alfalfa Sprouts Recall: Health Food or Danger?
Look carefully if you see “Let’s Grow Healthy Together” alfalfa sprouts in your local store. Green Valley Food Corp. of Dallas is recalling 6,723 cases of the sprouts because Salmonella was found in a test sample. These were distributed in Texas. Details are available from the company via the FDA’s website.
Unfortunately, there have been way too many sprouts recalls in the past several years, and illnesses reported. A different manufacturer recalled possibly contaminated sprouts from stores along the East Coast in April. Be careful!
