Hundreds of Pounds of Ready-to-Eat Salads Have Been Recalled

VIEW ORIGINAL POST ON KBLX.COM

The recall is due to salmonella and listeria contamination concerns. The ready-to-eat salads were stocked in various chains including Whole Foods, Trader Joes, 7-Eleven and Walmart. Food suppliers learned about the possible contamination when one of the shared food suppliers recalled corn that had been used in the salads earlier this week. So far, fortunately, there have not been any reports of illness. 

Salmonella and listeria are responsible for some of the most widespread food-poisoning cases in the past. See list of recalled salads below. Consumers are urged by the USDA to return or immediately dispose of any of these purchased items.
