Reason for recall
Kerry Ingredients is recalling two products, Italian Pork and Beef Meatball Seasoning, and Beef and Chicken Meatball Seasoning, because they were processed on the same equipment as Breakfast Sausage Seasoning which tested positive for Salmonella. Kerry determined that the source of the Salmonella was an ingredient used in the Breakfast Sausage Seasoning.
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.
