Seasoning Recall Update as FDA Sets Most Severe Level

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued its most severe type of food recall after Newly Weds Foods and Kerry, Inc. notified the agency that several of their seasoning products might have been contaminated with salmonella.

Newly Weds Foods, a Chicago-based company, initiated the ongoing recall on May 2, informing the FDA that 4,685 lbs of its Steak and Burger Seasoning products, packaged in 5lb cases, could have potentially registered the presence of the dangerous bacteria. The product was distributed in Florida, Illinois and Texas.

Wisconsin-headquartered Kerry, Inc. informed the agency on May 3 that several of its seasoning products might have been contaminated with salmonella, including 77 bags of its Cheddar & Sour Cream seasoning and 13,341 bags of its Sun Nat HV Cheddar #3 seasoning.

The products were distributed in Arizona, California, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas and Maryland, as well as in Canada.
