Florida
FDA's distribution note: All bean and soy sprout consignees are within the state of Florida. The firm owns refrigerated delivery trucks that transport the sprouts to the customers directly. No third party delivery service is used.
Do not eat it. Class I means FDA judged there is a reasonable probability of serious illness or death. If the brand, size and lot or date code on your package match, throw the product away or return it to the store for a refund, and clean any surface or container it touched. If anyone has eaten it and feels unwell, contact a doctor and mention the recall. FDA lists this recall as terminated: the company has finished removing the product, so it should no longer be on shelves - but it can still be in a freezer or pantry.
