Jewel-Osco Recalls 2 Fresh Salsas Over Salmonella Risk From Recalled Jalapeños

Summary
Two Jewel-Osco products — Chefs Kitchen Fresh Salsa and Ready Meals Fresh Salsa — were pulled after the grocer flagged possible salmonella contamination.
Recalled jalapeños in both salsas were supplied through Taylor Farms distributor Direct Roots and tied to an ongoing FDA recall involving Coast Citrus Distributors.
Consumers who bought either salsa were told not to eat it and to throw it away or return it to Jewel-Osco for a full refund.
Salmonella can cause fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain, with the highest risk for young children, older adults and people with weakened immune systems.
