Understanding this recall
What happened
Todd's Seeds is recalling Todd's Seeds Salad Sprouting Mixture because it contains alfalfa seed that the firm's supplier recalled for possible E. coli and/or Salmonella contamination. This is a "downstream" recall: the problem traces back to an ingredient, not to Todd's own processing.
Why it matters
Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC), such as O157:H7 or O145, can cause severe stomach cramps, diarrhea (often bloody) and vomiting. Some people, especially young children and older adults, develop hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a type of kidney failure. Raw sprouts and produce eaten uncooked are known sources. Sprouting seeds are a recognized source of these bacteria because the warm, moist conditions used to sprout seeds at home also help bacteria multiply.
Who should pay attention
People who sprout seeds at home and bought Todd's Seeds sprouting products, including from Amazon or directly from the company.
Distribution in the FDA report: Nationwide; through Amazon or direct to consumer
