Whole Foods is recalling dozens of products due to potential salmonella contamination, the retailer announced Wednesday. The recalled products contain jalapeños sourced from Coast Citrus Distributors, which has been tied to a recent multistate salmonella outbreak.
Recall Details
Dozens of major retailers announced recalls tied to the distributor last week, with Whole Foods joining the ranks Wednesday. The recalled products were sold online and at stores in Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Montana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, and Wisconsin.
Customers who purchased any of the products listed should not consume them, federal officials said. Instead, discard the product or bring a valid receipt to any Whole Foods Market store for a full refund. Salmonella is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.
