Please share this post with anyone who may not have heard about these recalls! Friends don't let friends get food poisoning!
I often use corn straight from the bag, thawed, in salads...like in black bean and corn salad. I'm sure the bag gives cooking instructions, but I've never seen instructions that said Do not use without boiling first. Thank you for this important update and all your very crucial recall announcements.
