Recall #F-2235-2012 · Initiated 2012-07-27
Plain-language summary
by FoodRecallsDB.infoWhat happened
Garden-Fresh Foods is recalling several brands of mustard potato salad because they contain onions that may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, a harmful bacterium. The onions came from a supplier, Gills Onions, that issued its own recall for the same contamination concern.
Who is at risk
People who are pregnant, elderly, very young, or have weakened immune systems are at higher risk for serious illness from Listeria, though anyone can get sick.
What to do
If you purchased any of these mustard potato salads, do not eat them—throw them away or return them to the store. Check your refrigerator for the product names and UPC codes listed in the recall, particularly if you live in Arizona, California, Florida, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, or Wisconsin.
