Whole Foods recalls dips, salsas and other prepared foods containing jalapeños over possible Salmonella risk
Whole Foods Market announced a recall of select produce and prepared-food items that contain jalapeños supplied by Coast Citrus Distributors because of a potential Salmonella contamination.
The recall covers dips, salsa, guacamole, pico de gallo and other ready-to-eat products. Salmonella infection can lead to fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and, in severe cases, bloodstream involvement, posing higher risk to children, the elderly and immunocompromised individuals.
The FDA, CDC and state and local health agencies are investigating a multistate outbreak linked to the jalapeños. Consumers are urged to check labels, discard affected products and follow guidance from health officials.
