The USDA has released the distribution list of the recalled Farm Rich frozen snacks that have been recalled for E. coli O121. The snacks are associated with an outbreak that has sickened at least 24 people in 15 states. WalMart sold the snacks nationwide in their stores.
The recalled foods are heat treated, not fully cooked frozen mini meals and snack items. The Rich Products Corporation has recalled many of the items. You can see the complete list of recalled items at the USDA web site, along with pictures of the product labels.
The FDA has also issued a recall for the Frank Rich products they monitor, which do not include meat or poultry. They include Farm Rich Mozzarella Bites in 22 ounce bags and 7 ounce cartons. You can see pictures of those product labels at the FDA web site. The Market Day Mozzarella Bites that are recalled are distributed by a fundraising food cooperative.
If you purchased any of these products, do not eat them. Please check your freezer to see if you have any of the recalled products. If you do, return them to the place of purchase for a refund. If the foods are contaminated with E. coli O121, you could get sick by handling these products before baking and not washing your hands.
