    Due to the scale of this recall, I thought some of you may need to check your freezers. You're welcome.

    Thanks for that update.

    I buy Green Giant veggies at Target because its house brand veggies lack flavor and texture. Hopefully, none of those will be recalled, especially after I ate a bundle of them.

    No problem. As much as I want to strangle some of the posters here, I certainly don't want any of them to get sick :love:
