Garden Highway Chef Essentials Celery, Onions, diced: 5 oz Manufactured by GH Foods CA LLC, Rancho Cordova, CA.

Gh Foods Ca LLC recalled Garden Highway Chef Essentials Celery, Onions, diced: 5 oz in a Class I action — the FDA's most serious tier, reserved for products with a reasonable probability of causing serious health consequences or death on Jul 26, 2012.

The recall was triggered by possible Listeria contamination: "GH Foods CA received notification from Gills onions of a recall of onions due to Listeria Monocytogenes. GH Foods used the recalled onions in numerous product." Listeria monocytogenes can grow at refrigerator temperatures and is especially dangerous for pregnant people, newborns, older adults, and those with weakened immune systems.

The product reached multiple states, recorded by the FDA as "CA, NV, AZ, UT, AZ, CO, NM, SD, WY, NE." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Sacramento, CA. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Aug 15, 2012), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved. The historical record remains useful for tracking a brand's recall pattern over time.
