Alfalfa Sprouts Recall Due to Improper Temperature Storage

Sysco Atlanta is recalling Sunny Creek and Bloomsbury Organic Farm alfalfa sprouts sold in Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee because the product was not held at appropriate temperatures and may be unsafe to consume.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall involving a potential food safety hazard (improper temperature control) that could affect a perishable product. However, the source text explicitly states no illnesses or injuries have been reported, making this a precautionary recall based on potential risk rather than confirmed harm.
