McCormick alerted customers and grocery stores to remove the product with the affected date codes from store shelves and distribution centers immediately and to "destroy the product in a manner that would prevent any further consumption."
Consumers who have purchased any of the recalled products have been urged to discard the item along with the container rather than returning it to the store where it was purchased. Replacements and refunds are being issued directly through McCormick Consumer Affairs.
While no illnesses have been reported so far, salmonella can cause serious illness, especially in young children, elderly people and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy individuals infected with salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.
