The product reached multiple states, recorded by the FDA as "Product was distributed in Utah, Virginia, Texas, and California. Mostly distributed to restaurants, one distributor in Houston, Texas, one retail store in Orange County in Southern California." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in El Monte, CA. The recall covers 3 cases, 30 bags per case of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Nov 16, 2022), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved.
