About a week ago, sprouts distributor Green Valley Food Corp., announced a recall of nearly 7,000 cases of sprouts distributed in Texas because of possible Salmonella contamination. (See my prior blog post.) Now, the recall has grown to 36,000 cases. That’s a lot of sprouts.
More details at the FDA website.
Look carefully if you see “Let’s Grow Healthy Together” alfalfa sprouts in your local store. Green Valley Food Corp. of Dallas is recalling 6,723 cases of the sprouts because Salmonella was found in a test sample. These were distributed in Texas. Details are available from the company via the FDA’s website.
Unfortunately, there have been way too many sprouts recalls in the past several years, and illnesses reported. A different manufacturer recalled possibly contaminated sprouts from stores along the East Coast in April. Be careful!
This is a blend of Gewurztraminer, Riesling, Viognier and Muscat Canelli from Llano Estacado Winery in Lubbock, Texas. Sweet nose, long legs, and a sour taste. Although it would probably work well with an outdoor chicken barbecue on a hot summer day, there is a bit more complexity for me than I find enjoyable. Only sold in Texas for about $23 per bottle.
