National Frozen Foods Corp. is voluntarily recalling several brands of not-ready-to-eat, individually quick frozen green beans and mixed vegetables because they have the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.
The recall comes two days after foodservice supplier US Foods and the U.S. Department of Defense Commissary Agency reported the frozen food company had recalled certain frozen green beans.
Several more brands of green beans are included in the recall, including Sysco brand. Sysco is the largest broadline foodservice supplier in North America. US Foods is the second largest. Together they have well more than half of the market, which includes school cafeterias, restaurants and other foodservice operations.
The National Frozen Food Corp. (NFFC) recall includes products distributed to foodservice operations, in bulk and smaller containers, in Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and Washington.
The products being recalled were distributed between Aug. 18, 2017, and Jan. 12 this year. As of the posting of the NFFC recall notice on Thursday, no illnesses had been confirmed in relation to the recalled products.
The recalled items can be identified by the date codes printed on the back of the 32-ounce bags or on the side of the master cases. Frozen green beans with the following label information are included in this recall:
