Rutgers Spinach report: Part VI

From the Rutgers Food Policy Institute:


Some Americans say they will avoid specific brands of spinach and spinach grown in particular regions of the country While many Americans are clearly hesitant about eating spinach again, the results indicate that some may eat spinach more selectively in the future. As part of the recall, consumers were advised to discard packages of specific brands of spinach suspected of containing contaminated product, and investigations revealed that the contaminated spinach was grown in California. When respondents who eat spinach and were aware of the recall were asked if they would avoid specific brands of spinach, 15% said that they would. Similarly, 19% reported that they would avoid spinach grown in particular areas of the country.
