A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Bremen, GA. The recall covers 139 cases of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Oct 16, 2019), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved.
