The FDA and Fullei Fresh are recalling the company’s alfalfa sprouts.  These sprouts are contaminated with Shiga toxin-producing E.coli.  This bacterium produces a serious and dangerous gastroenteritis for young children, older persons, and those with weak immune systems.  Healthy adults and older children experience more muted symptoms.  The affected lot is #336.  The sprouts were sold in Florida between December 9th and 23rd 2022.  If you purchased this product, do not consume it.  Dispose of it.  For more information and any refunds, contact Fullei Fresh by phone at 1-305-758-3880 or by email at [email protected].
