At least 12 products have been impacted by the recall as of Friday, though officials indicated that additional items could still be identified. Most of the affected products were distributed through retailers and grocery stores across the country.
A major Salmonella recall has affected dozens of widely consumed snack products, with concerns over an infected ingredient that resulted in the removal of several items, including popcorn, chips, nuts, and other packaged grocery items from store shelves. The recall has been linked to milk powder supplied by California Dairies used in various brand-name products and snacks, particularly in seasonings.
According to the US Food and Drug Administration, the potentially contaminated powdered milk and buttermilk were voluntarily recalled on April 20. As of Friday, at least 12 products have been impacted by the recall, though officials indicated that additional items could still be identified. Most of the affected products were distributed through retailers and grocery stores across the country.
Separately, the FDA recently announced another Salmonella-related recall involving 12 flavours of the popular chocolate brand Spring & Mulberry. However, that recall appears to involve a different supplier, and it remains unclear whether it is connected to the California Dairies incident.
