Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

GHSW, LLC is recalling approximately 1,786 pounds of ready-to-eat salad products sold under the 365 by Whole Foods Market, Trader Joe's, and Trader José's brands. The recall was initiated because the corn ingredient used in these salads may be contaminated with Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes. The affected salads were produced between October 1 and October 18, 2018, and were shipped to retail locations in several states. No illnesses have been reported to date, but consumers should return the product for a refund or throw it away.

Risk

Salmonella can cause serious gastrointestinal illness with symptoms like diarrhea, fever, and cramps. Listeria monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, a serious infection that can lead to severe complications for pregnant women, newborns, older adults, and individuals with weakened immune systems.
