Daily Harvest — a food subscription company best known for its pre-made vegan meals — has been criticized by dozens of customers who claim Lentil + Leek Crumbles has caused debilitating stomachaches, liver and gallbladder damage and other problems.
One customer said the product caused so much damage to his gallbladder that doctors had to remove it. And she got this… She added, “By the way, the crumbs were delicious.” Thank you, Mrs. Lincoln, for that.
DH summoned the producer and said it had launched an investigation.
Another customer said he had abdominal pain, fever, nausea and fatigue, but then things got worse… The liver readings were high, the guy doesn’t even drink.
However, another user said he has been sick for weeks. There are clients who say things got so bad that they land in the hospital.
After demanding customers to throw the product away, DH was mercilessly mocked, after posting, “Important message regarding French Lentils + Leek Crumbles. Link in bio with details.” Clients felt the company should have sounded an alarm rather than burying “details” in a resume.
The company has since removed the post and replaced it with an update, saying “Nothing matters more than the health and safety of our customers, and we deeply appreciate the trust you place in us and our food every day. We’ll update you as follows as we know more.”
