Frozen French fries recalled due to Listeria scare
A new food scare has come out following an already long list of food recalls; Milotel Frozen Vegetables LTD has announced a general recall for frozen French fries after the company discovered Listeria in the packaging.
Milotel Frozen Vegetables LTD has announced that Listeria monocytogenes has been found in its frozen French fries. Several bags of the product have been shipped out from the factory and are now in grocery stores.
The following products have been recalled:
Sources at Milotel believe that the bacteria will be killed as long as the product is prepared according to instructions. This is because the cooking temperature for the French fries is high enough to kill the bacteria.
With that being said, the company is erring on the side of caution, and has instituted a recall of the product. The recall is being carried out in conjunction with the Ministry of Health and the National Food Service.
