The organism can cause serious and sometimes fatal

infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immunesystems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such ashigh fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, anddiarrhea, Listeria  infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnantwomen.

This expanded recall of frozen vegetables includes all of the frozen organic andtraditional fruit and vegetable products manufactured or processed in CRF FrozenFoods’ Pasco facility since May 1, 2014. All affected products have the best by dates orsell by dates between April 26, 2016 and April 26, 2018. These include approximately358 consumer products sold under 42 separate brands, the details of which are listed

below. Products include organic and non-organic broccoli, butternut squash, carrots,cauliflower, corn, edamame, green beans, Italian beans, kale, leeks, lima beans,onions, peas, pepper strips, potatoes, potato medley, root medley, spinach, sweetpotatoes, various vegetable medleys, blends, and stir fry packages, blueberries,cherries, cranberries, peaches, raspberries, and strawberries. For a complete list ofaffected products, see below.

We apologize for any concern or inconvenience this expanded recall has caused ourcustomers and consumers who enjoy our products. We are issuing this release to alertconsumers not to eat these products. Consumers who purchased these products mayreturn them to the store where they were purchased for a refund, or simply discard
