Should you have purchased frozen vegetables or pre-packaged meals, it’s essential to inspect your refrigerator. The FDA has recently issued a recall for certain frozen spinach products, some of which are HelloFresh’s ready-to-eat meals, and this recall might be extended to more items.
The affected items are as follows:
– Sno Pac’s 10-ounce organic frozen spinach, with lot numbers SPM1.190.5 (expires 7/9/27), SPC1.160.5 (expires 6/9/27), SPC2.160.5 (expires 6/9/27), and SPM1.097.5 (expires 4/7/27)

Thus far, there have been no reports of illnesses linked to this recall. However, a listeria infection can be particularly hazardous for individuals who are more vulnerable, such as pregnant women, the elderly, children, and those with weakened immune systems. The symptoms of listeriosis can include fever, muscle pain, headache, a stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance, and diarrhea along with other gastrointestinal issues.
If you possess any of these products, you should not consume them. The FDA advises disposal of the items or returning them to the point of purchase for a full refund.
