Guest guest Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Veggie Booty snacks recalled From Times Wire Services June 29, 2007 Robert's American Gourmet Food Inc. recalled all its Veggie Booty snacks across the U.S. and Canada because the mix might be contaminated with salmonella, regulators said Thursday. Fifty-one people in 17 states, mostly children age 3 and younger, were infected with potentially deadly salmonella bacteria linked to eating Veggie Booty, according to a statement posted on the Food and Drug Administration's website. The snack, which contains vegetables such as kale and spinach, is sold in grocery stores and over the Internet. U.S. health officials haven't confirmed a link between the finished product and salmonella, the FDA said. Robert's, based in Sea Cliff, N.Y., has stopped making and distributing the snack food, pending results of the investigation, according to the company's website. The company said consumers who purchased Veggie Booty should discard the contents and contact the company at (800) 626-7557 for reimbursement.
