Stop & Shop Recalls Prepared Squash Side Dish
BOSTON (WBZ) ―
Stop & Shop is recalling all butternut squash side dishes that are packaged with the supermarket chain's prepared turkey and ham holiday dinners.
The recall announced Monday applies to all 24-ounce sides of butternut squash packaged in the holiday meals.
It was issued after Stop & Shop's vendor,
Simmering Soup, Inc., recalled the product because of an undeclared egg allergen and quality concerns.
The recall does not apply to squash sold in the prepared foods department.
Customers are asked not to eat the squash.
They should return it to their local Stop & Shop for a refund.
For more information, customers can call a hotline at 800-767-7772 or visit the store's
web site.
There have been no reports of anyone getting sick from the squash at this point.
