The Internet railed
against vegan food deliv
ery company Daily Har
vest for both the fact and
form of its recall of French
Lentil + Leek Crumbles.
“We’ve received custom
er reports of French Lentil
+Leek Crumbles causing
gastrointestinal issues,”
Daily Harvest announced
on its website June 19. “We
took immediate steps to
address what we heard
from customers, reaching
out to every person who
received French Lentil +
Leek Crumbles, instructing
them to dispose of the
product and not eat it.”
Daily Harvest also said
its talking with customers
who experienced health
problems as well as of
fering refunds. If you felt
sick after eating the French
Lentil + Leek Crumbles
and Daily Harvest hasn’t
contacted you, the compa
ny asks that you file a
report with them online or
email them at crumbles
recall@dailyharvest.com.
S
Daily Harvest put a link
to its website recall an
nouncement in its Insta
gram account bio, and a
note to click on the link in a
sinceremoved post about a
different variety of crum
bles. But that post included
the jaunty “Spaghetti and
Walnut + Thyme Crum
bles? We think Nonna
would approve,” and the
juxtaposition struck some
folks as inappropriate. Also,
some criticized Daily Har
vest for posting the link.
“Why not include the most
important message in the
caption?” Instagram user
adhd.nutritionist asked.
What Daily Harvest did
is also more than most food
companies do when pulling
products. Companies might
put a recall on their web
site. More often, they issue
press releases that post on
some external press release
website few consumers will
see. Then that release is
posted to the FDA site or
the USDA posts its version
of the release. Supermar
kets might put the press
release on their websites.
