New York-based Solata Foods recalled some of its “Fresh Spinach” products from the market following concerns about bacterial contamination, while the company ceased all production of the item.
The recall was initiated because the food items “may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems,” said the June 27 FDA recall notice.
