SALINAS, Calif. (AP) - Two California produce shippers have
recalled thousands of cases of green onions supplied by an onion
farm in Mexicali, Mexico, over fears the onions could be
contaminated with salmonella.
U.S. Department of Agriculture inspectors found salmonella in a
routine test taken in New York last month. No illnesses have been
reported.
Officials notified the shipper, Salinas-based Steinbeck Country
Produce. The company issued a voluntary recall Aug. 28 for 3,360
cartons.
Steinbeck's produce was distributed in California,
Massachusetts, Texas, Indiana, New York, Michigan, Missouri, Kansas
and Arizona.
Castroville-based shipper Ocean Mist Farms recalled 1,746 cases
as well, after realizing they came from the same lot. Ocean Mist
wouldn't say where it's onions were distributed.
