Just two weeks after recalling more than 150 food products for possible listeria contamination, a North Carolina-based food distributor is reportedly closing its doors. WCTI-TV reports that SunBurst Foods, which distributed a plethora of pre-packaged foods, closed its doors this week leaving nearly 100 employees without a job. A spokesperson for SunBurst didn’t explain why the company chose to shut its doors instead of fixing any issues that may have contributed to the possible contamination. “We determined that it was just in the best interest to shut down,” the spokesperson told WCTI. On October 13, the FDA issued a notice that food products under the names SunBurst, Fresh Bites and private labels sold in grocery stores and convenience stores in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and Georgia could contain traces of listeria. Recalled items include a variety of cold sandwiches, salads, breakfast meals, packaged fruit, desserts and snacks.
