No cases have been found in people after consumption but a press release states that “BrightFarms chose to take this action out of an abundance of caution after receiving routine lab results and discovering that certain product may have been compromised.”
The affected products come from the BrightFarms location in Rochelle, Illinois, a town about 80 miles west of Chicago.
