More than a dozen Taylor Farms products that were sold at large retailers across the US are being recalled because they include jalapeño peppers that may be contaminated with salmonella.
The recalled products include salsas, dips, sandwiches and more that were distributed across 26 states and sold at stores including Kroger, Target, Trader Joe’s, Walmart and Whole Foods. The full list of recalled products can be found on Taylor Farms’ website.
Some of the products include “Best If Used By” dates up to and including August 16, and consumers are urged to discard any recalled products immediately. Refunds are available at the location of purchase, Taylor Fresh Foods says.
Oh, I see. That’s why we don’t know about it.
So the way it works is that they do proactive tests that take a few days for results. But instead of letting produce sit there and age, they distribute it because the extreme vast majority of the food is safe.
So if a test DOES come back positive, then they recall it.
It was caught. That’s why the recall was issued.
Again, this is the system WORKING.
If the system did NOT work, there wouldn’t be recalls, people would simply get sick.
