Daily Harvest Product Recalled After Outbreak

Daily Harvest, a direct-to-consumer food company that prides itself on providing one-step-prep organic and sustainably harvested foods, has issued a recall on its French Lentil + Leek Crumbles after nearly 500 people reported gastrointestinal illness after consuming the product.

The company announced the recall in a press release on its website following reported symptoms of debilitating stomach pain, cramping, fever, jaundice, full-body itching, and other gastrointestinal complications including potential liver damage. Daily Harvest urged customers to throw away the product which was part of the company’s new plant-based protein line introduced a few months ago.

The FDA is now working to investigate the root cause of the outbreak and the severe gastrointestinal symptoms affecting consumers.
