Amy’s Kitchen Experiences Huge Product Recall
A non-GMO company we support
Latest News
Approximately 74,000 cases of product made by Amy’s Kitchen have been recalled due to a possible listeria contamination. Amy’s is a non-GMO food maker we support, but purchasing their products at the moment could possibly result in contracting a fatal food-borne illness.
After being contacted by Amy’s regarding the food recall, the FDA has posted a press release about the recall that states:
“This recall is based on a recall notice from one of Amy’s organic spinach suppliers that Amy’s may have received organic spinach with the possible presence of Listeria monocytogenes, an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.”
Amy’s Kitchen is not aware of any illness complaints to date related to the recalled products. Here is a picture of Amy’s Facebook status announcing the recall:
Even though healthy individuals would likely only have mild symptoms from eating listeria, in pregnant women, the infection can result in miscarriage, premature delivery, serious infection of the newborn, or even stillbirth.

The products were distributed throughout the US and Canada. Products include items like vegetable lasagna and tofu scrambles, as well as pizzas and enchiladas. The entire list of products is outlined here.
Listeriosis can be caused by many things, including soil contamination and unprocessed dairy or meats.
If you purchased Amy’s recalled product recently, simply dispose of it. But don’t forget to continue to support Amy’s in their quest to provide organic, non-GMO foods. Purchasing these foods is essential to putting the squeeze on Big Food corporations as well as biotech companies.

OMG I just about had an accident I laughed so hard- you can read this troll like a book. I placed a bet with Bill that Bobo would be the first to troll here.He said in about 3 hours I said 1hour. It sort of reminds one of that vulture up in the tree waiting for the animal to die. There have been no confirmed cases yet- “may have received organic spinach” – but Bobo couldn’t wait to get his lyin two cents worth in.What a joke and he doesn’t even know what country he lives in and what type of government we have.
Any bets as to how long it takes the GMO troll to respond? After all, all he does is waits all day in his mommy’s basement in front of his sister’s computer waiting for instructions from his Consanto bosses.
Awe johnny I just can’t resist answering you since you are up for my fan club president!! Why did your wife name you bisQuick again? Did you ever figure out what type of government we have? Most of us learned with the pledge in kindergarten, what happened to you?
You know I would love to comment on this but there just enough of any substance here to comment on. Maybe that’s why they call you Bobo. And by the way what form of government do we have – fascism or a democracy?
Not enough substance? Thank you for admitting that organic is more dangerous than gmos. Please everyone stay away from organic per johnny bisquick as it could be dangerous.
Why do these organic companies try to poison their customers with this junk? They need to use the good high quality products that real ag produces.
Monsanto will soon be pushing organic big time. I guess you will be fired!
Gotta be hired first, but Monsanto may get out of the GMOs someday since Dow is taking the lead in the field, but it will take a long time.
Sorry they will both be gone sooner than you think and so will your paycheck Bobo
