Summary

Dole Fresh Vegetables Inc. has recalled approximately 109,667 units of various salad kits and slaw products due to the presence of excessive foam detergent in the wash water used during processing.

These products were distributed to retailers such as Walmart, ALDI, and Lidl across several states, including Florida, New York, and Pennsylvania.
