Salmonella outbreak tied to recalled cucumbers has now sickened ...
Feds warn against eating multiple products containing the vegetable, including salads, wraps, party trays and meal kits.
www.cbsnews.comI don’t have live tool access right now, but I can share what’s generally known about recent salmonella recalls involving salad items up to early 2026 and how to verify the latest details.
Direct answer
- There have been multiple recalls in recent years tied to salmonella and cucumber-containing salads or salad kits across the U.S. and Canada, with expanded recalls and ongoing FDA/CFIA notices in late 2024–2025. For the latest, check FDA recall notices (FDA.gov), the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) recalls page, and major outlets that track food safety recalls.
Key points to look for
- Common triggers: contaminated cucumbers or cucumber-derived ingredients found in prepared salads, bulk salad kits, veggie bowls, and sushi products.
- A typical recall pattern: a company issues a voluntary recall after FDA/CFIA alerts, often expanding to additional products, batches, or retailers spanning multiple states or provinces.
- Consumer actions: don’t eat recalled items, discard or return them where returns are accepted, and wash hands and surfaces that contacted the products.
Where to check for the latest
- U.S. recalls: FDA recall center (fda.gov) — search for “salmonella recall salads” or “cucumbers recall.”
- Canada: CFIA recall pages (inspection.canada.ca) for salad kits and cucumber-related recalls.
- News updates: trusted outlets like CBS News, Forbes, Health, and major regional outlets may summarize active recalls and provide a timeline.
Illustrative quick example
- A cucumber-linked salmonella outbreak led to recalls of prepared salads, veggie trays, and sushi across multiple retailers in 2024–2025, with public health agencies advising consumers to avoid affected products and retailers issuing product recalls; multiple states or provinces were affected in those waves.[2][5]
