Is this recall different from the one issued a couple weeks ago?

It's the same. It just keeps growing.

Yeah, it's probably the same one, just expanded more I think.

 

I didn't hear about it a few weeks ago; just heard today. That's why I posted. Sorry if it's old news.

The stuff I bought from BJs was not under the recall a few weeks ago but is now. Stuff from Walmart, Aldi, and 40 other brands are also included now.

This is a real gear grinder.

I didn't hear about it a few weeks ago; just hu eard today. That's why I posted. Sorry if it's old news.

My MIL texted me about it last night, but she rarely watches the news so I thought it was the same one from a couple weeks ago (we didn't have anything then.). It sounds like it's bigger now, I'm going to check my again freezer just in case.

It keeps growing.  After getting repeated phone calls from Costco that I'd purchased affected product, and not finding the veggies I had in the freezer on the lists, I got a little paranoid.  I have no idea what I've bought where, so I just went through and tossed all of the frozen vegetables that I had that were store bought.

 

Last week there was also a listeria recall on certain kinds of frozen chicken products.
