**States: New York, Pennsylvania and Vermont.** Archive: https://archive.today/AK6vL From the post: >>Hundreds of bags of peeled garlic are being urgently recalled over fears they could trigger the life-threatening complication botulism. Grocery store chain Tops Friendly Markets has issued an alert for all of its Christopher Ranch Peeled Garlic and Garland Peeled Garlic, which were sold in 6oz bags. FDA investigators warned that the products were not refrigerated correctly, creating the ideal conditions for the bacteria Clostridium botulinum, which produces potentially deadly botulism-causing toxins. In severe cases, botulism can cause muscle paralysis and breathing failure, leading to death.
