May 10, 2011 - Goodness Gardens, Inc. of New Hampton, NY is voluntarily recalling Chives Lot # 0201111, because it has the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes...
The Chives were distributed in NY, NJ, CT, MA, PA, MD, AL, IL, and VA through retail stores primarily and one wholesaler in PA.
The Chives were distributed in various plastic clamshell containers: 0.25 oz. (UPC 0 21985 20005 6),2/3 oz. (UPC 0 21985 10004 2), in 1 lb. bags, and ? oz. twist tie bunches.
No other Goodness Gardens Inc. products or lots are included in this recall.
The recall was the result of a routine sampling program by the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection which revealed that the product lot contained the bacteria.
It is unlikely that any product still remains in stores but if so retailers should remove Chives Lot # 0201111 with date 5/6/11 from store shelves and inventories. Goodness Gardens, Inc. Customer Service representatives are already contacting retailers to ensure the precautionary recall is executed swiftly...
