WEST DES MOINES — Hy-Vee, Inc. is recalling an additional 12 salads due to the potential they may be contaminated with Cyclospora.
The potential for contamination was brought to Hy-Vee’s attention when Fresh Express, which manufactures the product, announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control Prevention (CDC) expanded its investigation of an outbreak of Cyclospora in the upper Midwest section of the U.S.
The 12 salads are in addition to the 12 oz. Hy-Vee Bagged Garden Salad Hy-Vee pulled last week after notification of the investigation.
Hy-Vee now has 13 private label bagged salad products (all expiration dates) being recalled as a result.
The products were distributed to Hy-Vee grocery stores across its eight-state region of Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, Minnesota and Wisconsin.
The list below outlines the products that have been recalled. No other Hy-Vee branded salads are impacted by the recall.
