Lundberg Family Farms has recalled one-pound pouches of its Sustainable Wild Blend Gourmet Rice after a “foreign object that appears to be of rodent origin” was detected in the product, according to a Food and Drug Administration notice. This means that consuming the possibly-contaminated product could "cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences."According to a recall notices posted on various grocers' websites, if you think you've purchased one of the Sustainable Wild Blend Gourmet Rice products, you should throw it out. If you still have your receipt, you can bring it to the store where you bought it for a full refund.
In this case, the contamination "of rodent origin" likely refers to pieces of a rat or mouse that got into the rice during the manufacturing portion of processing. Rodent parts usually get into products after they get into facilities through cracks or holes in walls, the foundation, roof, or ventilation, Schumaker said.
