Corn recalled in Indiana over listeria concerns

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – Corn in Indiana has been recalled over concerns it could be contaminated with listeria, a bacteria that could make people sick.

The company Bonduelle USA has recalled frozen corn that was distributed to Indiana and 13 other states.

Affected products and codes, according to the FDA, are:

  • WYLWOOD Super Sweet Whole Kernel Corn, NET WT. 16 OZ (1 LB), UPC 051933002401, Codes: Best By June 2017 K51564 and K51574;
  • MARKET BASKET Cut Corn, NET WT. 16 OZ. (1 LB.), UPC 049705693414, Code: Best By June 2017 K51574;

  • WEST CREEK FROZEN VEGETABLES Cut Corn, NET WT. 2.5 LBS., UPC 00806795285239 Code: Best By June 2017 K51574.

Nobody has reported illness in connection to the corn, but a test of the corn in Tennessee revealed the presence of listeria.

Anyone who purchased the corn should throw it away. Anyone who wants a refund or has questions can call the company at 877-990-2662 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday to Friday.
