The GIANT Company has issued another food recall.
According to a release from the company on Friday morning, this recall impacts Nature’s Promise Organic baby and whole carrots. GIANT’s supplier has notified it that these carrots may have the presence of E. coli bacteria.
The recall affects the following products:
