**Nationwide Frozen Soup Recall Issued After Paralysis Case Linked to Product**

A significant recall has been initiated across multiple states for a brand of frozen soup after one consumer experienced paralysis, potentially linked to consumption of the product. Federal health officials and the manufacturer, Veetruth, announced the voluntary withdrawal on Tuesday following an investigation into the reported incident.

The affected product is Veetruth’s “Chicken & Vegetable Noodle” soup, sold in 32-ounce packages with specific ‘Best By’ dates ranging from June 17, 2024, to July 26, 2024. Distribution occurred across California, Colorado, Idaho, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, and Washington. Consumers are urged to immediately discard any impacted soup they may have purchased.

The individual who suffered paralysis is currently undergoing medical treatment, and their condition remains under evaluation. While the precise cause of the illness has not yet been definitively determined, preliminary investigations suggest a possible contamination event during the manufacturing process. Veetruth stated in its announcement that it is cooperating fully with regulatory agencies to pinpoint the source of any potential contamination.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is actively monitoring the situation and providing guidance to both the manufacturer and retailers regarding recall procedures and sanitation protocols. Consumers with questions or concerns are advised to contact Veetruth directly through a dedicated hotline established for this recall, details of which can be found on the FDA’s website. The company emphasized its commitment to food safety and expressed regret over the incident’s impact on consumer confidence.
