Recalled product pulled from Chipotle Mexican Grill stores

Pasco Processing LLC, Pasco, Wash., is recalling 2,087 cases of 20 pound bulk packaged Corn and Poblano peppers (SKU 10071179017738), because of the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, according to an FDA statement.

No illnesses have been reported in association with the recall. No other products that were manufactured by Pasco Processing are involved in this recall. This item was produced by Pasco Processing and transferred to the J.R. Simplot Company for distribution. The product was packaged in 20 pound bulk cases which were labeled as follows:

Corn and Poblano Blend; 10071179 017738; 20 lbs. Net Wt.; Distributed by J. R. Simplot Co., Boise, Idaho 83707

The recall extends only to products coded 3901741007 and 3901751007 sold to two foodservice distributors in California and one in Arizona and further distributed to Chipotle Mexican Grill Restaurant locations in California, Nevada, and Arizona. The recalled product has been removed from the Chipotle locations and quarantined for destruction. None of the production time periods found to contain Listeria monocytogenes were delivered to restaurants.

Pasco Processing and Chipotle are collaborating closely with the FDA. The recall is being issued out of an abundance of caution based on a confirmed positive result for Listeria monocytogenes in a routine test sample conducted by the company.
