Dole Chopped Kit Buffalo Ranch Green Cabbage recall

Recalled by Dole Fresh Vegetables Inc · Monterey, CA, United States

Class III — Low risk. Unlikely to cause harm, but violates FDA regulations.

Why it was recalled

Incorrect chemical added into wash systems when certain organic loads of vegetables start to create excessive foaming. The incorrect chemical added was a lot of foam detergent.

Some of these cause harm only with repeated exposure (lead in spices, for example), others act within hours (histamine poisoning from spoiled fish). All chemical contamination recalls.

Low risk, but check. Class III means the product is unlikely to make anyone ill but breaks an FDA rule, often a labeling one. If your package matches, the store will normally refund it. 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.
