U.S. Snack Recalls Widen Over Salmonella Risk Linked to Milk Powder

Regulators warn the list could grow during ongoing tracebacks, with no confirmed illnesses to date.

Overview

  • An April 20 recall of California Dairies’ powdered milk and buttermilk over possible Salmonella set off nationwide pullbacks of finished foods that used those ingredients.
  • The growing list spans chips, trail mixes, popcorn seasonings, frozen pizzas, pork rinds, and large‑format Ghirardelli beverage mixes sold for food service that may have been available online to consumers.
  • Brands and retailers cited in notices include Utz’s Zapp’s and Dirty chips, John B. Sanfilippo mixes under Fisher, Southern Style Nuts, Squirrel Brand and Target’s Good & Gather, plus items sold at Walmart, Aldi, Giant Eagle and Williams Sonoma.
  • USDA’s food safety agency issued a April 30 health alert for meat and poultry items that used FDA‑regulated dairy ingredients, including specific Great Value and Mama Cozzi’s chicken bacon ranch pizzas and Pork King Good sour cream and onion pork rinds.
  • Officials urge consumers to check lot codes, discard or return recalled items, and report that no illnesses have been confirmed as companies continue tracebacks that could add more products.
