HH Fresh Trading recalls enoki mushrooms due to listeria risk

HH Fresh Trading Corp of California is recalling its 200g of Taiwan Enoki because they have the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.

The recalled "Enoki mushrooms 200 gram" were distributed in West Virginia in multiple retail store locations and were sold on 8/20/2024 and 8/23/2024 with 240 cases for each date. HH Fresh Trading received notice on 10/11/2024 that the Enoki 200-gram test revealed the presence of Listeria monocytogenes on 9/9/2024. As a result, we would like to recall this product immediately.

The product comes in a 200-gram, clear plastic package marked with barcode # 4711498860019 on the backside. No illnesses have been reported to date in connection with this problem. The potential for contamination was noted after routine testing by the FDA revealed the presence of Listeria monocytogenes in 200 grams of Enoki. The production of the product has been suspended while the FDA and the HH Fresh Trading Corp continue to investigate the source of the problem.

Consumers who have purchased 200 grams of HH Fresh Trading Taiwan Enoki are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Consumers with questions may contact the company at 1-262-365-9116 from 8 AM to 4 PM from Monday to Friday Pacific Time.
