Company Announcement

This recall is limited solely to VegeFarm products listed below, which have been sold in retail stores nationwide. No other Global Vegetarian Foods Corp. or Happy Veggie World products are affected.
Happy Veggie World’s signature collection of heat and serve meals including Kung Pao Chick’n, Lemon Chick’n, Citrus Spareribs, as well as our Bac’n and Famous Drumsticks are not manufactured in this facility.
