lettuce recall

  • Question:-lettuce Recall???
    I heard through i friend that along with the tomato recall there is a lettuce recall. I can not find anything on it. Does anyone know if this is true and know where i can find a list of which lettuce's are recalled??? Thank you.

    Answer:-as of right now there is no lettuce recall!! If you go to www.recalls.gov there is a list of everything on there that is on recall!! Also if you go to walmart.com and at the very bottom of the page under help is Product Recall Info, click on that and follow the info and it will also give you some info on recent recalls!!
  • Question:-Salad poll: Just how is that lettuce recall supposed to work?
    Just read about it this morning on the Internet.

    Oops, already ate my salad.

    Bonus Q: Do I wait a few hours, then mail it back to them?

    Bonus Q2: Do I get my money back?


    .

    Answer:-Yes, wait until its passed and then send it back to them.

    I would think that you should get your money back. If you dont, send them a bag of sh!t per day until you do.
  • Question:-What do you think about the recall of lettuce.?
    They say they won't America to be small, but how can we when the healthy food is really bad for us.

    Answer:-I think the media did a poor job of explaining the situation and therefore alot of the consumers didn't get the right info. It was a "voluntary recall". The company thought there was a possibility of contamination in the secondary water source The company did multiple tests on the possibly contaminated lettuce and they all came back negative of E. Coli. So the lettuce is perfectly safe for eating. I come from an agriculture area so I'm not worried about this whole E. Col thing at all. Really you can get E.Coli from anything. Its not something new. There is E. Coli on your local ATM or your shopping cart handle. Its everywhere.
  • Question:-Romaine Lettuce Recall?
    my guinea pigs will eat Romaine Lettuce, but since the recall...now what?
    Do I just give them some other veggies and more of it to take place of the lettuce until its safe again??

    Answer:-feed them other things until its safe. there is no reason to risk your guinea pigs life. daily food, add a pinch of oatmeal (dry plain and uncooked) to his regular food. they love it and it has a great amount of fiber. my ham loves yougurt drops (milk and honey) so it worth a try with guinea pigs. also, try strawberries,carrots, and peanut butter. they love it all!!
  • Question:-Lettuce Recall........What does this mean?
    Does this mean that the pissed off Mexicans are now shxtting on the lettuce as a way of protesting the new Arizona Immigration law?

    Answer:-LOL - I thought the exact same thing. Except it happens all the time.
  • Question:-Is anyone else bothered by the lettuce recall?http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20061008/ap_on_re_us/tainted_lettuce?

    I love to eat salads and now I'm scared to buy lettuce

    Answer:-Thanks for the link! I didn't know it was lettuce, too. Yes, I'm concerned. I just got a bunch of arugala & now I don't think I'll use it. Until they truly fasten this down, I'll stick with green peas. As my mum used to say, "Better to be safe than sorry." Tap water is another thing--didn't it take some fatalities before water (I think it was in Wisconsin) was determined to be contaminated? You have to be very informed of the bottled water as well. Oh gosh. Is anything safe anymore??
  • Question:-does california have a lettuce recall?
    *what other states are being affected by the e. coli?

    Answer:-No.

    If you live in Alabama, Connecticut, the District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia or Wisconsin, or if you buy the "grab and go" salads sold at Kroger, Giant Eagle, Ingles Markets, and Marsh grocery stores, this recall could affect you. Check for the brand names Freshway and Imperial Sysco, with a sell-by date of May 12.
  • Question:-What lettuce, if any, is currently safe to eat?
    Hi. I am concerned about the current lettuce recall and would like to know whether or not I should continue to eat lettuce on a regular basis on sandwiches and in salads.

    Answer:-I just bought some iceberg lettuce 2 days ago and had some. I'm still here and not sick, so it must be ok.
  • Question:-Oh, no!! Another lettuce recall here in the US. Is that going to be called China's fault, too?
    After all, Mattel and the other toy makers who outsourced jobs to China don't take the heat even though they are responsible. Corporate America and their anti-people policies COULDN'T be responsible, so it MUST be China, right?
    Daniel L -- Poor wittle corporate America. Is dey sad? Why dey loog after us so well and then we make dem cry. Wah. When will de poor people stop picking on dem?

    Answer:-Oh lets see...they outsource to China and expect quality work...you're so right!
  • Question:-When they recall something like lettuce, do you actually make an effort to avoid eating/buying lettuce?


    Answer:-Why would you NOT try to check to see if the product you are about to eat has been recalled for contamination.

    And the whole purpose of the recall is to prevent people from eating ONLY the product with the possibility of contamination - not every thing in that category.

    So you shouldn't have to avoid all lettuce - just the stuff they recalled. They pulled it from the store shelves already - so you only need to check to see if you have some already purchased.
