MORTON SALT INC: Morton Iodized Salt Recalled Due to Lack of Required Iodine Fortification

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Morton Salt, Inc. is recalling 16,920 canisters of Morton Iodized Salt (26 oz) because the product was not actually fortified with iodine despite being labeled as iodized salt. This recall affects canisters sold at retailers in California and Colorado with a 'Best By' date of September 8, 2026. Consumers who purchased this specific batch should return it to their place of purchase for a full refund.

Risk

Iodized salt is a primary source of dietary iodine; products lacking this fortification may lead to insufficient iodine intake for consumers relying on it for nutritional needs. While this is a low-risk issue, the product does not meet the nutritional standards promised on the label.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your pantry for 26 oz (737 g) canisters of Morton Iodized Salt.
  2. Verify the 'Best By' date on the packaging to see if it matches 9/8/2026.
  3. If you have an affected canister, do not use it if you specifically require iodized salt for your dietary needs.
  4. Return any affected product to the retail store where it was purchased to receive a full refund.
  5. Contact Morton Salt, Inc. or your retailer if you have further questions regarding this voluntary recall.
  6. For additional information, contact the FDA Consumer Complaint hotline at 1-888-723-3332 (1-888-SAFEFDA) or visit www.fda.gov/safety/recalls.
