Dear Eillien’s Customer:
This is to inform you of a product recall involving the following products that were manufactured with Roasted-Salted Sunflower Kernels and/or Roasted-Unsalted Sunflower Kernels which have the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, an organism, which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
The affected products are listed below:

16 oz. Sunflower Kernels // 460080

This recall is being conducted because Eillien’s was notified by SunOpta, an ingredient supplier, that the sunflower kernels may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes (L.mono). There have been no reported illnesses to date. However, Eillien’s Candies is initiating the voluntary recall in an abundance of caution to protect public health.
This recall is being made with the knowledge of the Food and Drug Administration.
