Snack mix recall hits Target products over salmonella risk
Fox Business • • business
Key Points:
- John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. is voluntarily recalling multiple snack mix products, including some sold under Fisher, Squirrel Brand, Southern Style Nuts, and Target's Good & Gather label, due to potential salmonella contamination linked to a seasoning ingredient.
- The seasoning ingredient, containing dry milk powder from a third-party supplier previously recalled by California Dairies, Inc., tested negative for salmonella before use, but the recall is a precautionary measure.
- Recalled products include various trail mixes with "best by" dates into 2027, such as Tex Mex Trail Mix and Good & Gather Mexican Street Corn Trail Mix sold at Target; no illnesses have been reported so far.
- Consumers are advised not to consume these products and to return them for a refund or replacement, as salmonella can cause serious infections, especially in vulnerable populations.
- This recall follows a recent salmonella-related recall of certain Zapp's and Dirty brand potato chips by Utz Quality Foods, highlighting ongoing concerns over contaminated snack foods.
