Tanimura and Antle recall one lot of Romaine lettuce from Salinas, California. This lot was shipped to 29 states, 2 countries and a territory.
The recall was initiated after a positive test for Salmonella from a state regulatory agency was reported.
The lot covered nine days of processing, June 25 to July 2. The recall was initiated at 19 days after the end of this lot's production. The shelf life of the product is sixteen days.
Several questions need to be answered.
1. Where did contamination arise?
2. Why would the lot span 9 days?
3. What are the internal testing procedures of the company?
4. What are the internal sanitation programs of the company?
5. What are the harvesting procedures of the company?
Until you find the source, you have to keep looking.
Think about how you handle leafy vegetables before you eat them.
Be safe out there.
