Don't eat it yet. Soon........
From LA Times:
FDA and California health department investigations have begun focusing on nine farms in Monterey, San Benito and Santa Clara counties after tracing lot codes from bags of spinach consumed by people who had fallen ill after eating the Natural Selection brand. They analyzed the processor's invoices to see which farms provided it with spinach during the period under investigation.
Investigators have not, however, traced the New Mexico bag to a particular farm.
Although federal officials repeated their warning to not eat fresh spinach or bagged salads containing fresh spinach, they said Wednesday that they are close to lifting the ban on spinach grown outside California.

All the contaminated packages have been pulled from the shelves.
I'm comfortable with the loose bunch enough that I had some last night for dinner salad.
As far as I know I'm still alive and kicking.
I'm also confident about the frozen packaged spinach that's in the freezer.
I love spinach and make it a part of my diet.

It was only the Pre-packaged spinach. Fresh loose spinach was not a problem nor the frozen.

the only spinach that was recalled was the prepackaged ones from the states. anything any where else is good, so try frozen or canned, it's still just as good, and you won't get sick!!!!

No, you can still have the frozen or canned. Anything that came from that company has already been pulled of the shelves. I wouldn't worry.

just use the canned. It is of course not as good as fresh but will do and cooks well in other dishes.
