The FDA is taking steps to protect the public following the early identification of Salmonella in one company’s supply of a common processed food ingredient.
At this time, no illnesses are known to be associated with this problem of contamination.
To prevent illnesses from occurring, FDA is advising industry about which products to recall and providing consumers with recommendations.

What products are affected?
FDA has posted a searchable website of products affected by the recall online at www.FoodSafety.gov. This website will updated as more product are recalled.
What I can I do?
FDA is recommending that consumers should:

- Remember to follow cooking instructions for all foods;
- Report symptoms of Salmonella or other food-related illness to your local health care professional.
Can I tell whether a product contains HVP from the ingredient list?
Consumers should not rely on the ingredient list to identify products that contain HVP. Consumers with questions about a particular product should contact the manufacturer or visit www.FoodSafety.gov.
How did FDA identify this problem?
FDA learned of this problem before any disease outbreak occurred. The agency received a report of contamination, inspected the facility and worked to put in place measures to instruct industry and protect consumers. FDA is continuing to assess the situation and may make additional recommendations as more information becomes available.
