“Fuji Natural Foods Recalls Mung Bean Sprouts Due to Foreign Object Risk.” GovInfoNow, updated October 8, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/21800-fuji-natural-foods-recalls-mung-bean-sprouts-due-to-foreign. Based on FDA recall #F-2210-2017 (https://api.fda.gov/food/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22F-2210-2017%22&limit=1).

Why it’s dangerous

The sprouts may contain a foreign object that could cause choking if ingested. This is a potential hazard when consuming raw sprouts, as the foreign object might not be visible to the consumer.

Who’s affected

All consumers who purchased Fuji Natural Foods mung bean sprouts products between the dates listed in the product labels. People who eat sprouts raw or in dishes where they are not fully cooked are at higher risk of choking.

How to tell if you have this one

Check the product label for batch numbers: 10 lb bags have numbers like 427841, 10 lb boxes have numbers like 428813, and other sizes have specific codes listed in the recall notice.
