Castleberry Food Recall
A recent recall of Castleberry Food products has many concerned about the health of those who might come in contact with these products. One of the major concerns is for our elderly population who may have purchased these foods or received these foods as part of a community food distribution program. If you know of an individual who may have these products on their shelves, please let them know of this important recall. If you are a caregiver or family member of someone that is aging, we ask that you take a few moments to review their pantry shelves for the recalled items and have them removed. For detailed information about the recall and the items that you are looking for, please visit http://www.fda.gov/oc/opacom/hottopics/castleberry.html.
