Companies usually start a recall weeks before the FDA classifies and publishes it; the gap above is that lag.

Reason for recall

Products were made with a seasoning component that contains a milk ingredient that has the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.

Salmonella causes fever, diarrhea and abdominal cramps, usually 12 to 72 hours after eating contaminated food. Most people recover without treatment, but severe cases can need hospital care.
