Salsa, Guacamole, More Recalled At Popular NJ Grocery Store
The prepared foods contain jalapenos that are potentially contaminated with Salmonella, according to the FDA.
Prepared dips including salsa, guacamole and more are being recalled at Whole Foods locations across the country due to potential Salmonella contamination, the FDA announced.
The products contain jalapeños sourced from Coast Citrus Distributors that potentially are contaminated with Salmonella, according to the FDA. This is part of an ongoing outbreak of Salmonella infections across multiple states.
"Salmonella is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems," the FDA said. "Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections, endocarditis, and arthritis."
