Overview

  • The Coffee Connexion Co. voluntarily began recalling the Alfredo sauce on May 6 after its supplier warned that a dry milk powder ingredient might be contaminated with Salmonella.
  • The FDA upgraded the action to a Class I recall on June 4, its highest risk level, signaling a reasonable probability of serious health consequences if the product is used.
  • The recall covers 913 cases packaged as 3 lb., 7 oz. sealed poly bags (12 bags per case) with UPC 0039954921963 and specific batch and lot numbers and best‑by dates listed in the FDA enforcement report.
  • Products were distributed to commercial kitchens in 41 states, including hospitals and colleges, raising concern because children, older adults and people with weakened immune systems face higher risk from Salmonella.
  • No illnesses have been reported in the FDA report and the company has not issued a public press release, while regulators continue traceback, advise disposal of affected lots and monitor for further developments.
