Fieldbrook Foods Corp. Announces Nationwide Voluntary Recall of Select Ice Cream Novelty Products Due to Possible Health Risk

Contact:
Jack Lockwood
716-366-5400 ext. 323

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — Dunkirk, NY – January 29, 2009 – Fieldbrook Foods Corp. announced a voluntary nationwide recall of select ice cream novelty products containing granulated peanuts as the products have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.

Salmonella is an organism, which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e. infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis. For more information on Salmonella, please visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Website at http://www.cdc.gov .

The FDA and other regulatory agencies have been investigating Peanut Corporation of America (PCA) due to a recent Salmonella outbreak associated with various peanut products.  The FDA has advised that all products produced by PCA from its Blakely, Georgia facility are subject to recall, including granulated peanuts.  Fieldbrook utilized granulated peanuts from PCA for the topping on various ice cream sundae cone products.

Fieldbrook is recalling the ice cream sundae cone products that contain recalled granulated peanuts from PCA.  The company has not received any complaints of consumer illnesses associated with these products.  The products listed below have been distributed nationwide to retail and food service distribution centers as well as Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic.

All lots of the following products are affected by the recall:

“Our number one priority is consumer safety,” stated Kenneth Johnson, President and CEO, Fieldbrook Foods Corp.  “Our actions are intended to remove all potentially contaminated products and eliminate any associated risks to consumers.”

Consumers who have purchased the recalled products should either destroy or return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.  Questions may be directed to the company at 1-800-333-0805, Monday – Friday between the hours of 8 AM and 5 PM EST.

The Extreme Regime Fat Burn Formula is now open: for that determined dieter who’s ready for a new bod.

ER Fat Burn Formula

But it closes this Friday, Jan 30, at Midnight PST (3AM EST – NY).

Because this ER Fat Burn Cycle starts officially on Jan 31 with Dr. Heidi’s live kickoff call.

There are two Live spots left right now…

ER Fat Burn Formula

You can still go for the less pricey Multi Media option. It includes everything for the five weeks except the private weekly consultations with Dr. Heidi. Plus you go at your own pace.

All calls are recorded for anytime listening. Plus they’re edited and transcribed so you can study those things you really want to dig into.

The forums are filled with active grads and newbies doing and asking and doing and getting slinkier and more energized.

OK enough already.

P.S. What if you don’t do this program? How much will you weigh in one year or in two? And by then it will cost $173 million because of inflation. And your special bonuses will be gone for sure.

Real Food with Dr. Heidi Dulay – Little Spa

My Whole Food Nation website.

I’m so excited to share some amazing news! Dr. Heidi is writing a new book to share her years of nutrition research with us! I can hardly wait and I’ll keep you updated…. Here’s a sneak peek (this post) at the kind of things you will find in the book being written by our one and only, Dr. Heidi Dulay who created the Extreme Regime Fat Burn Formula.

The five week fat burn program opens this Monday, Jan 26, 12 noon EST.

Go here to order and to learn more.

Dear reader: Below is part 2 of the ‘controversial findings’ related to the ad I tested recently:

Warning: Do not attempt another diet until you read this controversial report…

Part 1 of that report is here. Diet Warning: Big FAT surprise #1

Here’s part 2.

Most folks think meat is good if you want to lose weight.

90% (208) of the 228 readers said “FALSE” to Diet Warning survey Question 5.

Meat is not good if you want to lose weight.

Big Fat Surprise #3: Most meat is fattening. Meats are not created equal. Nor are chickens, turkeys, fish, eggs and dairy. We compare two burgers: An industrial burger and a grassfed burger. They may look the same, but one is fattening and the other is reducing. Yes, assume you are eating either one WITHOUT the BUN. An industrial burger is fattening. Its grassfed counterpart is reducing. Here’s why the industrial burger is fattening.
It has: An abnormal amount of total and saturated fat: 4 to 6 times more total fat and twice as much saturated fat as grassfed.
Hardly any omega 3 fats – the type of fat that burns fat, like salmon has. Omega 3 naturally present in cow fat plummets in the feedlot – the longer the cow is in the feedlot, the lower the omega 3 content.
Excessive amounts of omega 6 fats – the fats found in corn oil that are correlated with obesity and diabetes.
High level of toxins: growth hormone, antibiotics, pesticides and genetically modified organisms

.
Read the rest here….

P.S. This post is part of a new book being written by Dr. Heidi Dulay who created the Extreme Regime Fat Burn Formula. The five week weight loss program opens Monday, Jan 26.

“I forgot to take my lunchtime Purple, so I got it around 3pm. I was working (as a floor nurse) and was feeling very run down. I could tell a big difference by about 4pm. My energy picked back up and I was good to go. I was even able to go on to church when I got off work.”

“I am feeling great going into week 3. I have decided I will probably order the green pops and take them at night and continue with the purple pops in the mornings. I have had people sick with colds and flu all around me and have not caught a cold and my joint pains have diminished. Amazing. “

“I am so impressed with the Green one that I have made my order for 2 boxes of each. And because they are blister-packed, the Care Center where my son is being rehabilitated after neck surgery will consent to giving them to him with his meds.”

P.S. If you want to send Pops to a friend, when you order, use the “Comments” area to put the note you’d like to add.

E.g. To Lulu–Love, Archie. The notes will be preprinted with “Happy Holidays” and our assistant will handwrite your note.

We’ll ship to whomever you put in the “Ship To” area – Must be in the United States.

Are these vitamins safe?

Your daily vitamin might not be the insurance you think it is.

Are you aware of big vitamin scare going around the US and UK? The staid Reader’s Digest even had a cover story, “The Vitamin Hoax: 10 not to take” Feb., 2007).

Worst case: some vitamins are harmful. Best case: they do, well, nothing. So says the Reader’s Digest.

Before you pop that next daily multi, check the bottle for two things:

1. Toxic ingredients.
Artificial colors: FD&C Blue #2 Lake, FD&C Red 40, etc.
Preservatives: sorbates (eg, Polysorbate 80), benzoates (eg, sodium benzoate), nitrites (eg, sodium nitrite), sulphites (eg, sulphur dioxide)

2. Are they synthetic?
Look at the names of the vitamins and minerals in the “Ingredients” listing on the label of the bottle. (You may need a magnifying glass.) A vitamin or mineral is synthetic if only its chemical and/or popular name appears, with no plant source.

E.g. from the label of a popular synthetic multivitamin seen on TV

Ingredients: Calcium Carbonate, Calcium Phosphate, Magnesium Oxide, Potassium Chloride, Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), DL-tocopheryl acetate (Vitamin E), ALL SYNTHETIC vitamins.

Your vitamins are not synthetic if they are listed with their whole food source. For example, “Vitamin C (from camucamu fruit)” indicates that you’re getting the Vitamin C, along with the other nutrients it lives with in the whole fruit. Not just the isolated vitamin C made in a lab.The scoop is in the 3-page white paper, Are You Wasting Your Money on Synthetic Vitamins? here.

That’s the reason Dr. Heidi finally designed a daily whole food multi, the Pops.

 

If you want a daily multi that is whole-food based, with no toxins or synthetic vitamins, go here and get some. They’re not a drug, so give them a few months to test them.

If you HATE to pay shipping like I do, check the 4 month (4 boxes) “subscription” option, and you don’t pay shipping.

Regardless of whether you get the whole food multis designed by Dr. Heidi or not (I’ve taken them for over a year) please throw out any synthetic vitamins that might be doing you more harm than good.

From Kim Klaver and Dr. Heidi Dulay – thanks for keeping us informed!

Breakthrough research — fresh from the University of Toronto

A recent study from the University of Toronto determined that the Vita-Mix processing method does indeed alter plant cell wall structure in a unique way, influence particle size differently, and may increase bioavailability.

What does this mean to you? You can only get the benefits of food when cell walls are broken to release the trapped nutrients. Chewing may only release a portion of these nutrients as shown by these lab micrographs. Vita-Mix processing power breaks open more cell walls which may release MORE of these nutrients.

Using a Vita-Mix 5200 machine makes the most of every dollar you spend on food—every day.

Here is a synopsis of this exciting research: Three plant foods–strawberry, carrot and tomato–were selected as representative of various plant cell wall densities. The selected foods were able to provide clear evidence of the different results obtained when the same food is chewed and processed in a Vita-Mix 5200.

Tomato – Chewed	Tomato - processed in Vita-Mix machine

Carrot – Chewed	Carrot - processed in Vita-Mix machine

Strawberry – Chewed	Strawberry - processed in Vita-Mix machine

Both chewed and Vita-Mix-processed plant tissue samples were examined by light and scanning electron microscopy. The scanned results above show the difference in plant cell wall structure and resulting particle size.

A 2003 study conducted by Gene Spiller, PhD, CNS, FACN at Health Research and Studies Center in Los Altos, California involved plasma ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) and Carotenoid studies. The comparison of mean peak values to fasting values showed an increase in nutrient levels for subjects consuming Vita-Mix processed rather than raw fruits and vegetables. The results of the study suggest that parts of whole foods that are not normally consumed, but can be prepared in the Vita-Mix machine (i.e. stems, seeds, strawberry tops and pineapple core), can contribute to a higher intake of antioxidants if prepared in a way that makes these parts more digestible.

To sum it up, whole foods have it all–but teeth can’t cut through food fiber to deliver all the nutrition trapped inside their cell walls, particularly the nutrient-rich skins and seeds. When whole foods are simply chewed, lots of nutrients are tossed out as inedible or they pass through the body undigested. Again, great news for everyone who owns a Vita-Mix 5200: You get more fiber, more flavor and more nutrition than you thought possible when you make whole food meals in your Vita-Mix machine.
