Hi, I wanted to give the heads up in regard to a recent problem I have had with Organic Broccoli.
I buy Organic Frozen Broccoli every few weeks from a company called the Natural Grocery Store. It is from a company called ARDO and is usually excellent.
However, when I cooked some from my recent order, it tasted really salty. Baffled, I opened another bag, cooked that, Same result. So salty as to be utterly inedible.
I contacted both the retailer and ARDO. The former were not particularly interested and the latter said they did not use salt in production and do not seem interested in finding out how it has found it's way into the product.
My concern, is that, having only recently purchased it, there will still be plenty of contaminated bags out there - it does not make sense that only my few would be the only ones affected, and I feel the levels of salt would be downright dangerous for a small child or baby.
So, if you use this product, I urge you to taste it first before giving any to your little ones.
I have retained the bags if anyone wants to check the batch numbers against any they may have in their freezer.
