Hundreds of Pounds of Ready-To-Eat Salad May Be Contaminated With Salmonella & Listeria

HOUSTON (AP) – A Houston company has recalled nearly 1,800 pounds (816.47 kilograms) of ready-to-eat salad with chicken products because a corn ingredient may be contaminated with salmonella and listeria.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture says GHSW recalled salads produced Oct. 1 through last Thursday, with “best by” or “best if sold” dates of Sunday or Monday.

There are no reports of anyone getting sick.

Salads with a “P-44056” USDA mark were shipped to Colorado, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas. Items include:

– 10 ounce (283.49 gram) packages of “365 BY WHOLE FOODS MARKET BBQ STYLE CHOPPED SALAD WITH CHICKEN”

– 8 ounce (226.79 gram) packages of “365 BY WHOLE FOODS MARKET CHICKEN FAJITA SALAD”

– 13 ounce (368.54 gram) packages of “TRADER JOE’S BBQ SEASONED WHITE CHICKEN SALAD”

– 10.7 ounce (303.33 gram) packages of “TRADER JOE’S FIELD FRESH CHOPPED SALAD WITH GRILLED WHITE CHICKEN”

– 10.7 ounce (303.33 gram) packages of “TRADER JOSE’S MEXICALI INSPIRED SALAD WITH CHILI SEASONED CHICKEN”

Salmonellosis can cause diarrhea, abdominal cramps and fever. Listeriosis can cause diarrhea, fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance and convulsions.
