Listeria Popsicle Recall
January 30th, 2008 laurie
Ca Rem #1 Ice Cream, SeaTac, is voluntarily recalling its coconut-flavored popsicles over fears they may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.
Washington’s state Department of Agriculture did routine sampling of the product and found the presence of Listeria. So far, no one has fallen ill over ingesting the popsicles.
The popsicle is sold in 3-ounce un-coded plastic bags, primarily in Asian food markets and restaurants in western Washington and western Oregon. Consumers who have purchased Ca Rem #1 popsicles should throw out the product and not eat it. Consumers with questions may contact the company at 206-720-1887.
Earlier this month we reported on a listeria outbreak at Whittier Farms in Massachusetts after it sold poorly pasteurized milk from its “mom-and-pop” dairy. However, these popsicles are non-dairy items.
