The products were sold between Dec. 7 and Dec. 18.

Wegmans Food Market is recalling fresh Cauliflower Rice, Veggie Cauliflower Rice Blend and Stir-Fry Mix with Cauliflower because it may be contaminated with E. coli, the Food and Drug Administration reported Friday.

The specific products involved in the recall are:

The recalled products were sold between Dec. 7 and Dec. 18. They were distributed to 98 Wegmans stores in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and Massachusetts.

Customers who purchased the recalled products should return them to the service desk for a full refund. If any questions, consumers are encouraged to call Wegamans at 1-855-934-3663 Monday through Friday, between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Eastern time.

The voluntary recall was initiated by a supplier to Wegmans, Produce Packaging based in Cleveland, which notified the grocery chain that the product may have been contaminated. No illnesses from consuming the products have been reported.

Earlier this week, a California farm associated with the E. coli outbreak linked to romaine lettuce recalled cauliflower and some additional lettuces because of possible contamination.

Adam Bros. Farming of Santa Maria, California issued the voluntary recall of red leaf lettuce, green leaf lettuce and cauliflower out of an abundance of caution, after it was discovered the produce may have come in contact with water from the water reservoir where the E. coli outbreak strain was found, the FDA said.
