Butterball, LLC is recalling approximately 78,164 pounds of raw ground turkey products because they may be contaminated with Salmonella Schwarzengrund. The recall includes various packages of fresh ground turkey sold under the Butterball, Kroger, and Food Lion brands produced on July 7, 2018. Consumers should not eat these products, as five illnesses related to this outbreak have been reported in two states. You should return the turkey to the store where you bought it for a refund or throw it away immediately.
The turkey may contain Salmonella, which can cause salmonellosis. This lead to symptoms like diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and fever within 12 to 72 hours; while most recover, some cases can be severe enough to require hospitalization, especially for older adults, infants, and those with weakened immune systems.
