Salmonella is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis.
No injuries or illnesses have been reported or linked to Safeway Kitchens products. However, three cases of Salmonella enteritidis illness have reportedly been linked to other products produced by Aspen Foods/Koch Poultry Company.
Customers who purchased this product should discard it or return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.
Customers who have questions about the recall can contact Aspen Foods/Koch Poultry Company at (844) 277-6802 or Safeway at 1-877-SAFEWAY.
