Why was Costco Service Deli Department 63 MEATLOAF SEASONING MORE FLV Pack… recalled?

According to the FDA, the stated reason for the recall is: “Potential Salmonella contamination. The firm was notified from their supplier that the nonfat dry milk may be contaminated with Salmonella.” In plain terms, this recall relates to Salmonella.

Salmonella is a group of bacteria that is one of the most common causes of foodborne illness in the United States. Public health authorities note that infections can lead to symptoms such as fever, diarrhea, and stomach cramps, and that young children, older adults, and people with weakened immune systems are at higher risk of serious illness. Because it can spread through contaminated food, regulators treat Salmonella findings seriously.
