Reason for recall

Products were manufactured from raw material (buttermilk solids) that may potentially 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.
