Product Recall: Veggie Booty Snacks, Veggie Corn Tings
July 21, 2007
Learned about this on The Consumerist…
The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) confirmed that a strain of Salmonella Wandsworth bacteria found in Veggie Booty snack food is responsible for the disease outbreak that occurred between March and June 2007. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has identified 60 persons, mostly toddlers, from 19 states who have become ill. Five persons were hospitalized. No deaths have been reported.
FDA continues to advise consumers not to eat any Veggie Booty and to throw away product they have. FDA also advises consumers not to eat Super Veggie Tings Crunchy Corn Sticks, and to throw out any supplies they have, because this product also may be contaminated.
The source of the contamination is thought to be spices imported from China by Atlantic Quality Spice & Seasonings of New Jersey.
Veggie Booty is marketed by Robert’s American Gourmet, of Sea Cliff, N.Y. No illnesses have been associated with any other Robert’s American Gourmet products.
