Grimmway farms recalls a few varieties of packaged carrots due to salmonella concerns
Another week, and another round of salmonella related recalls. Last week it was prepackaged salads. This week it’s the carrots that just may go into those salads. Grimmway Farms has initiated a recall of a few of their carrot varieties due to salmonella concerns. Unlike last week’s salad recall, fortunately no illnesses have been reported so far linked to this recall.

Salmonella often isn’t a concern for young healthy adults. Contracting salmonella without any underlying conditions, while unpleasant, usually results in no more than symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and maybe a fever. For children, the elderly, women that are pregnant, or individuals with weakened immune systems; salmonella can be dangerous. And sometimes deadly. It’s important if you’ve consumed any of the recalled carrots that you contact your physician. If you still have any of these products in your home, you should throw them out or return them to your retailer for a refund.
