Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Onions 52 is recalling approximately 382 units of jumbo red, medium red, and jumbo yellow onions due to possible contamination with Salmonella Oranienburg. These onions were imported from Chihuahua, Mexico, and were distributed nationwide as well as specifically in Nebraska, Tennessee, and Texas between July 1, 2021, and August 25, 2021. Consumers who purchased these onions should check for specific brand labels including Imperial Fresh, Farm Fresh, and Carzalia Valley Produce. Because Salmonella can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections, consumers should not eat these onions and should return them for a full refund.

Risk

The onions may be contaminated with Salmonella Oranienburg, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.

  6. Clean and sanitize any surfaces, containers, or utensils that may have come into contact with the recalled onions to prevent cross-contamination.
