Daily Harvest, a popular vegan food source, is being sued for complaints after consuming the company’s lentil crumbles. The FDA, CDC, and independent labs are investing hundreds of complaints of GTI and liver issues after consumers ate the Daily Harvests French Lentil + Leek Crumbles. The investigation is still in progress and more information will be released as it unfolds.
About 28,000 12oz pouches of this item were voluntarily recalled back on June 23rd, 2022, by Daily Harvest. These bags are mainly purchased through online sales, delivery, retail, and some pop-up stores across the country. While the company has attempted to contact those consumers known to be at risk, they did release a statement on June 23rd via the FDA, to immediately dispose of any Daily Harvest FrenchLentil + LeekCrumbles pouches that are still in possession.
While it is highly recommended throw this specific item out immediately, no other 100+ menu products from Daily Harvest have been known to have any issues for consumers. For those that have consumed the item, and feel ill, please contact your health provider immediately. Typical symptoms from the item include but are not limited to dark urine, itching, stomach pain, fever, and body aches.
On June 27th, a message from Daily Harvest’s Founder and CEO Rachel Drori was posted on their website citing that they are working 24/7 to get to the bottom of this issue. They will continue to share updated information in the days to come.
