Sabra Hummus Recall Prompts Taylor Farms Recall Of Vegetable Products

Sabra Dipping Company’s Recall Prompts Secondary Recall From Taylor Farms of Vegetable Products 

Following the Sabra Dipping Co., LLC’s (“Sabra’s”) recall where select Sabra’s products were recalled due to the potential of being contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, Taylor Farms Tennessee, Inc., Taylor Farms Texas, Inc. and Taylor Farms Pacific, Inc. (all collectively referred to as “Taylor Farms”) are voluntarily recalling a limited number of products that contain Sabra’s recalled products.

The recalled products are labeled “Taylor Farms Veggie and Hummus Bistro Boxes” and “Schnucks Vegetable and Hummus Snack Trays” containing Sabra Hummus Classic 2 oz. dipping cups.

The Taylor Farms products subject to the recall are limited to the code dates provided. No other Taylor Farms products are impacted by this recall.

(Please refer to Sabra’s recall notice for details regarding individual Sabra items and lot codes/”Best Before” dates, also located on the lid or bottom of the dipping cups.)

These products are being recalled because they have the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.

Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.

Taylor Farms has not received any reports of illnesses associated with these recalled items. The recalled products were distributed from October 30, 2016 – November 18, 2016.

The grocers involved have been instructed to remove any remaining product from their shelves and to dispose of any of the remaining product in their inventory.

The recalled products were distributed in Arkansas, California, the District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, North Carolina, Nevada, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, and West Virginia.

Customers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume the products and should dispose of the recalled products immediately.

Consumers may call for further information at (855) 455-0098 between the hours of 9 am (PST) and 5 pm (PST) Monday through Friday. Consumers with concerns about an illness from consumption of this product should contact a health care provider.
