SALINAS, Calif.—Tanimura & Antle, Inc. is expanding the geographic scope of its voluntary recall of bulk and wrapped romaine head lettuce to all 50 states. The recall also includes Puerto Rico and Canada.
The recall was issued after a random test conducted by the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture tested positive for Salmonella. All customers who received the romaine directly from the company were notified on July 21 and advised to discard any existing product, which now is well past its shelf life. Romaine included in the recall was harvested June 25-July 2.
