The FDA has announced that they have independently confirmed that the seasoning used in “veggie booty” is contaminated with salmonella. The outbreak, which has now sickened 61 children from 19 states, continues to grow. Please, stop feeding “Veggie Booty” to your children. Salmonella can cause serious infections that are sometimes fatal in young children.

If you see a store selling “Veggie Booty” or “Veggie Corn Tings,” ask the manager to remove it from the shelf. Robert’s American, the company that manufacturers the snacks, has ceased production. If you see “Veggie Booty” on the shelf, you can assume it is full of delicious salmonella.

The source of the contamination is thought to be spices imported from China by Atlantic Quality Spice & Seasonings of New Jersey.
