Hy-Vee Garden Salad Recalled For Possible Cyclospora Contamination

Hy-Vee said customers should throw out or return all 12 oz. garden salad bags as they may be contaminated with Clyclospora.

The FDA and CDC linked the product, manufactured by Fresh Express, to an upper Midwest Cyclospora outbreak, according to a Hy-Vee news release.

The product should not be used, regardless of expiration date, and can be returned for a full refund. It is the only Hy-Vee product impacted by the recall, according to the release.

Cyclospora symptoms can last for more than a month if not treated and those with poor health are at a greater risk. Symptoms include watery diarrhea, loss of appetite, weight loss, cramping, bloating, increased gas, nausea, fatigue, vomiting and low-grade fever. So far, no customers have reported falling ill, the news release said.

Questions can be directed to Hy-Vee Customer Care all hours of the day at 1-800-772-4098.
