The USDA/FSIS reported that Euro Foods (Freeland, Pennsylvania) recalls approximately 119,091 pounds of salame stick products that may be contaminated with Salmonella. FSIS issued a public health alert for the salame stick products on October 29, 2021, believing that the product was no longer in commerce. However, following this alert, FSIS observed products available at one retail location, and two Citterio salame stick samples previously collected by the California Department of Public Health have tested positive for Salmonella. The following products are subject to recall 2-oz. packages containing Citterio “Premium Italian-Style Salame Sticks ALL NATURAL” with “best by” dates through January 23, 2022. FSIS has been working with the CDC and state public health partners to investigate a multistate outbreak of 31 Salmonella I 4,[5],12:i:- illnesses in 10 states with onset dates ranging from September 18, 2021, through October 18, 2021. Two unopened, intact packages of Citterio Italian-style Salame Sticks collected by the California Department of Public Health tested positive for Salmonella. These items were shipped to retail locations nationwide and exported to Bermuda. @ https://www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls-alerts/euro-foods-dba-citterio-usa-corp.-recalls-salame-stick-products-due-possible
