Understanding this recall
What happened
Whole Foods Market is recalling Whole Foods Trio Dip because it was made with jalapeños that may be contaminated with Salmonella. This is one of several Whole Foods salsa and guacamole items in the same recall.
Why it matters
Salmonella bacteria can cause salmonellosis, with diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps that usually start 6 hours to 6 days after exposure. Most people recover within a week, but young children, adults 65 and older, pregnant people and people with weakened immune systems are more likely to become seriously ill. Foods eaten raw or uncooked, like fresh peppers, salsa, sprouts and powders, can't be made safe by the consumer. Fresh salsa and guacamole are eaten raw, so there's no cooking step to kill bacteria.
Who should pay attention
Whole Foods shoppers who bought fresh salsa, guacamole or dips from the prepared-foods case in the areas listed below.
