Freshway Foods Romaine Lettuce Recalled In Michigan Due To Potential Contamination

Our Michigan food poisoning lawyers are reporting that Freshway Foods recalled all products containing romaine lettuce that had a use by date of May 12 or earlier. The Freshway Foods romaine lettuce products were sold at food service outlets, wholesale, and in-store retail salad bars and delis in grocery stores such as Krogers. The recall is due to the potential contamination of E. coli, or Escherichia coli O145, bacteria. Consumers who purchased this product are recommended to throw away the product.

According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), a previously unopened product sample in New York tested positive for E. coli on May 5 and that is when the recall took place. The recall may also be due to an outbreak investigation in New York, Michigan, and Ohio.

Anyone who has questions about the recall or product should call Freshway Foods’ information desk at 1-888-361-7106 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday or go online to www.freshwayfood.com   

If someone were to contaminated with E. coli, serious injuries can result. The most common effect is a diarrhea illness often with bloody stools. However, a contaminated individual could develop Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome, which could lead to serious kidney damage or even death. Young children and elders are more probable to the syndrome.

Victims of E. Coli do have legal rights. If you or a family member suffer serious injuries due to an E. coli contamination, you should contact our office immediately to discuss your case.
