: Listeria BlogChang Farm (Again & Again) Recalls Sprouts Because Of Listeria Contamination
By Marler Clark
Sample testing by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has confirmed contamination of Soy Bean Sprouts with Listeria monocytogenes (L. Monocytogenes) at Chang Farm on River Road in Whatley, MA.
The positive test results have led to a recall the product packaged in 10 lb bags (bulk) and 12 oz plastic bags (retail), labeled under the Chang Farm Brand as Soy Sprouts and have a 'Sell By' date of July 17, 2009.
No illnesses have yet been associated with the recall.
The tainted Soy Sprouts have been distributed to retail stores and wholesalers throughout MA, CT, NY and NJ.
The Chang Farm recall notice can be found at the FDA. We reported in May on Chang Farm being a repeat offender when it comes to listeria contamination.

Sproutman Gets it Right . . . Somewhat Right Anyway
Steve Meyerowitz is, apparently, the Sproutman. Although I disagree with his analysis of the numbers--i.e. Sprouts have caused a hell of a lot more foodborne illnesses than 2,000 in the last 40 years--it's good to see an industry man who recognizes the risks associated with his product, and who cares enough about consumer health to advocate that his fellow sprout devotees do all they can, by way of researching and developing new pasteurization methods, to reduce risks...
