Ammonia can cause headache, nausea, vomiting and throat irritation. Consumers can return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Birds Eye said it received fewer than a dozen complaints and that testing confirmed ammonia was present in a package sold under a store brand name. The brand names are: Stop & Shop, Shaw, Price Chopper, Lafe, Shurfine, Hannaford, Flavorite, Market Basket, Wegmans, Giant, Tops, Safeway, IGA, Roundy's, Remarkable and Dominicks. The squash was produced by Chase Farms in Walkerville, Mich.
