USA – Fry’s Food Stores Recalls Cheese Dips Because of Possible Health Risk – Salmonella

Posted on August 14, 2020 by | Leave a comment

FDA

Fry’s Food Stores is recalling select cheese dips sold because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. 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 (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis. No customer illnesses have been confirmed to date.

On July 31, the company was notified by supplier Onions 52 that it had received red, yellow, and white onions from Thomson International, Inc., which had been implicated in the salmonella-related outbreak. On August 1, bulk onions sourced from Thomson International, Inc. were removed from sale in stores that had been identified as receiving the affected product. Subsequently, it was determined that several in-store made cheese dips may have used red onions from the produce department as an ingredient.

The dips, which are in plastic containers, were sold between May 15, 2020 and August 6, 2020. Items impacted include:

Israel – Maya Red Lentils – Salmonella

Posted on August 13, 2020 by | Leave a comment

Food Safety Recall (Israel): The Maya Food Industries Factory Ltd.

Maya Red Lentils / Indira brand Red Lentils – Salmonella

During a routine inspection that was reported to the supplier of the raw materials to the
Maya Food Industries Factory Ltd. the Salmonella bacteria were found in a batch of the
raw materials that had been used for packing the products:
Maya Red Lentils 0.5 kilograms 7290002319184
and Red Lentils 1.4 kilogram Indira brand (Osher Ad) 7290014325395
Out of all the expiration dates: best used before 25.12.2021 to 30.12.2021 inclusive.
Consumers who have the products are requested not to consume them.
Consumers in possession of these products are invited to go to the points of sale and replace them with new ones.
The Company is acting to collect the product from the marketing channels.
It is essential to point out that the Salmonella bacteria do not survive in the heat of cooking, so there is no health danger to whoever eats the lentils after they have been thoroughly cooked.
In healthy people, the Salmonella bacteria is liable to cause illness that is expressed in a
high temperature, diarrhea (sometimes bloody), nausea, vomiting, and stomach aches. In
rare cases, it may cause complications. Insensitive populations such as young children,
those with a weakened immune system, and the elderly, the bacteria are liable to cause
severe disease, and sometimes it can even be fatal.
The Maya Food Industries Factory Ltd. regards the health of its customers as of prime
importance, and so it has been decided for the sake of extreme caution to recall the product from the shelves, and it is acting in conjunction with the Food Service at the Ministry of Health.
For any questions about the product we invite you to contact our customer service by
telephone: 02-535-7991

USA – Kader Exports Recalls Frozen Cooked Shrimp Because of Possible Health Risk – Salmonella

Posted on August 13, 2020 by | Leave a comment

FDA

Kader Exports, with an abundance of caution, is recalling certain consignments of various sizes of frozen cooked, peeled and deveined shrimp sold in 1lb, 1.5lb., and 2lb. retail bags. The product has been distributed nationwide from late February 2020 to Mid-May 2020 because it has the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.

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. 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 (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis.

The affected product details are as below. The brand names of the products are: AQUA STAR RESERVE/ CENSEA/ FRESH MARKET/ KIRKLAND/ TOPS/ UNISTAR/ WELLSLEY FARMS.

Products not bearing these codes are not affected or involved in this recall.

There have been no reports of any illnesses to date associated with these cooked shrimp distributions. However, cooked shrimp imported by Kader Exports was tested by the FDA and found to contain Salmonella. Kader Exports did not distribute and have agreed to voluntarily destroy cooked shrimp found violative. The probable root cause for this recall is cross contamination. The company has eliminated the source of contamination and preventive steps were taken.

Based on known consumption patterns it is believed most if not all the distributed products have been consumed, and any remaining product has been placed on hold subject to further evaluation.

Consumers who have purchased the above product are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Consumers with questions may contact the company at +91-022-62621004/ +91-022-62621009, Mon-Fri 10:00hrs -16:00hrs GMT+5.5.

What has to be done

If you think you have become ill after consuming a recalled product, contact your doctor.

Check to see if you have the recalled products at home or in your establishment. Recalled products should be discarded or returned to the establishment where they were purchased. If you are in doubt about the variety of onions you have in your possession, check with the establishment where you purchased them.

Food contaminated with Salmonella bacteria does not necessarily look or smell spoiled, but can still make you sick. Young children, pregnant women, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems can get serious and sometimes fatal infections. In healthy people, salmonellosis can present with short-lived symptoms such as fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Salmonellosis can cause long-term complications, including a severe form of arthritis.

Context

This recall is the result of the CFIA’s investigation of a foodborne illness outbreak, which was followed by a recall in the United States by Thomson International Inc. , based in Bakersfield. , in California. The CFIA is currently conducting a food safety investigation which may result in the recall of other products. Any further high-risk product recalls will be reported to the public through an updated food recall warning.

The CFIA is ensuring that industry withdraws the recalled products from the market.

Illness

The Public Health Agency of Canada is currently investigating an outbreak of the disease in humans. Please see the Public Health Notice for more information on the ongoing outbreak investigation.
