Timeline

2 May 2016	Recall initiated by company

Reason for recall

Peas & Carrots are recalled because they have the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.

Listeria monocytogenes can grow at refrigerator temperatures. Infection is most dangerous for pregnant women, newborns, older adults and people with weakened immune systems. Symptoms can appear up to 70 days after eating contaminated food.
