Hundreds of cases of pre-made salads have been recalled in the US over a risk of death if consumed.
The nation’s agency responsible for protecting public health has issued the highest risk level recall for 946 cases of refrigerated deli salads from Isabelle’s Kitchen, Inc.
They contain fresh cucumbers contaminated with salmonella, according to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The affected salads were sold at various local grocery stores in eight states: Florida, New Hampshire, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Virginia.
The FDA defines a Class I recall as ‘a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of, or exposure to, a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.’
