Heads up everyone! Fresh Express is voluntarily recalling some of their Fresh Express “Romaine-based” ready-to-eat salads with the expired Use-by Dates of May 13th through May 16th and an "S" in the Product Code because they could potentially be contaminated with Salmonella. The recall comes after a single bag of Fresh Express Hearts of Romaine Salad with a use by date of May 15 was confirmed positive for Salmonella in a random sample test conducted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The recall extends only to products with (1) the previously mentioned Use-by Dates and Product Codes and (2) sold in the following states: Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Louisiana, Nebraska, Montana, Missouri, Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Nevada, Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, Hawaii, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming, North Dakota, and South Dakota. No other Fresh Express salads are included in the recall.
Be sure to check your fridge when you get home if you live in one of the above states. This brand of bagged lettuce is sold in the produce section of many popular supermarket retailers and grocery stores. For more on the recall and a complete list of recalled products click here.
