This affected the plant I work in, too (you know, my real job). We use these as an ingredient and had to recall product. I'm betting the sunflower guys will be shut down - this is going to hurt.

Some of this is attributed to better testing methods, but this is also a good reason why corporate structures in food need to do a good job vetting suppliers - which is very difficult. This is a good reason to utilize small companies that source locally... they know their suppliers. With a different company I used to work for, the corporate group decided to save a buck a pound of ingredient - it later cost them $8 million when the ingredient was found to be tainted with ground up plastic.This thread has gotten really depressing.

STILL with this bullsh*t....
Well, at the very least, I can see an uptick in sales for other flour brands.

Did some checking... looks like folks HERE are in the clear for now.... everything listed recently was beef, chicken, shrimp-this, meat-that, beef jerky, pork, hot dogs, corn dogs, catfish, etc., etc....
Still should probably watch out for the scary flour and those listeria-laden fruits & veggies....

Please note not everything is a food recall.
-------------------------------------------
Ground Tumeric has been recalled nationwide under brand names JM Exotic foods & Gel Spice Fresh Finds, due to elevated levels of lead. Blue Mountain brand Jamaican Curry Powder has also been recalled for the same.
General Mills has expanded it's recall of flours that may be contaminated with E. Coli.
Starbucks has announced a recall of 2.5 million rigid metal straws after receiving reports of small children cutting their mouths on them.

Country Fresh, LLC. of Conroe, Texas, is recalling 30,000 cases of various fresh-cut vegetable products (product descriptions attached), because they have the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
