Plain-language summary
by FoodRecallsDB.infoWhat happened
Spartan Central Kitchen is recalling their #342 Vegetable Dip (5-pound containers) because FDA testing found bacteria called Listeria in the production facility. The recall affects products made between August 20 and September 10, 2012.
Who is at risk
This mainly affects people in Michigan and Ohio who purchased this product, and is especially important for pregnant women, elderly people, young children, and those with weakened immune systems, as they are more vulnerable to Listeria.
What to do
Check your vegetable dip container to see if it matches the recalled product and date range. If you have it, throw it away or return it to the store—do not consume it. Contact Spartan Central Kitchen if you have questions about whether your product is affected.
