The recall affects veggie platters with sell-through dates from November 28 to December 8.

In addition to the initial recall of cucumbers from SunFed Produce, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has expanded the recall to include cucumbers from Baloian Farms of Arizona Co., Inc. These cucumbers were sold in several states and parts of Canada.

Customers who have purchased any of the recalled items are urged to avoid consuming them. They should dispose of the products or return them to their local store for a full refund. If anyone is concerned about possible illness or injury, they should contact a healthcare provider.
