March 30, 2011 - Louie Foods International of Fresno, California, is voluntarily recalling all Louie?s brand sprouts with a ?Use By? date on or before 4/14/11, because they may be contaminated with Salmonella. To-date, no illnesses have been reported.
Products affected by the recall include:
Alfalfa Sprout Mix, 4 oz. cups (UPC 11324 04401)
Alfalfa Sprout Mix, 16 oz. bags (UPC 11324 16401)
Clover Sprouts, 4 oz. cups (UPC 11324 04406)
Clover Sprouts, 16 oz. bags (UPC 11324 04406)
Spicy Sprouts, 4 oz. cups (UPC 11325 04402)

Products were sold to distributors located in the Central Valley and along the Coast of California. Within hours of being notified, Louie Foods International contacted all of its customers and advised them to destroy the affected products.
The contamination was detected during a random test conducted by the USDA, in a package of the alfalfa-clover sprouts. However, as a precautionary measure, Louie Foods International is recalling all sprout products produced during the same time period. Louie Foods International has temporarily ceased the production and distribution of the sprout products subject to this recall. The California Department of Public Health, FDA and Louie Foods International continue their investigation into the source of the problem...
