Products include Pirate's Booty, Veggie Booty, Power Puffs, Soy Crisps, Smart Puffs, Veggie Chips, Tings, and more.
On June 28th of 2007, the FDA informed the company that Veggie Booty was implicated in 51 cases of salmonella poisoning. Later that day, Robert's American Gourmet announced a recall of Veggie Booty. The problem was reported to have been a seasoning mix from China. Soon after, they also recalled Super Veggie Tings Crunchy Corn Sticks, because it had the same seasoning mix in its ingredients.
