07.05.2024 12:38:51 - dpa-AFX: Confectionary Items Sold At Walmart, HyVee, Target, Dollar General Recalled
MINNEAPOLIS (dpa-AFX) - Sioux City, Iowa-based Palmer Candy Co. is recalling
its 'White Coated Confectionary Items' citing the potential to be contaminated
with Salmonella, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The
impacted items were distributed across the United States in Walmart, HyVee,
Target, and Dollar General stores, among others.
Further, West Des Moines, Iowa -based Hy-Vee, Inc. called back two varieties of
its Hy-Vee Cream Cheese Spread, as well as its bulk-packaged Cookies & Cream Mix
over Salmonella concerns.
Palmer Candy's impacted confectionary items were sold under the brands of
Freshness Guaranteed, Palmer, Sweet Smiles, Snackin' With The Crew, Casey's,
Sconza Chocolates, Favorite Day Bakery, Sunny Select, Urge!, and Kwik Trip Inc.
The product comes in a variety of retail packaging like bags, pouches and tubs.
The recalled Confectionary Items were distributed nationwide in retail stores
and to wholesale to distributors in Alabama, California, Florida, Illinois,
Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South
Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
Further, Hy-Vee's recalled products are manufactured at different third-party
facilities around the Midwest and are sold under HyVee's private label and bulk
packaging programs. They were distributed to Hy-Vee, Hy-Vee Drugstore and Dollar
Fresh Market locations - as well as Hy-Vee Fast and Fresh convenience stores -
across the company's eight-state region.
Palmer Candy's recall was initiated after it was notified by its liquid coating
supplier that there was a potential for contamination with salmonella from an
ingredient that was potentially contaminated from one of their suppliers.
Salmonella is an organism that 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,
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, endocarditis, and arthritis.
However, no illnesses have been reported to date in connection with the recalled
products.
Palmer Candy has suspended the production of the product while an investigation
is ongoing to find the source of the problem. Hy-Vee also said it has removed
all affected items from its shelves.
Consumers who have purchased all recalled products are urged to return them to
the respective place of purchase for a full refund.
In recent recalls, Miami, Florida-based Infinite Herbs LLC in late April called
back select fresh organic basil citing Salmonella concern.
In mid-March, Dublin, California-based Wenders LLC recalled selected lots of
Trader Joes Nuts - 50% Less Sodium Roasted & Salted Whole Cashews citing the
same concerns.
