Summary
  • Tennessee firm recalled 913 cases of Alfredo sauce due to supplier recall
  • FDA classified the action as a Class I recall, highest severity
  • Product number SSP980713 spans several batch and lot identifiers
  • No illnesses reported, but vulnerable groups face higher risk

The Coffee Connexion Co., a Tennessee-based company, voluntarily recalled 913 cases of its Alfredo sauce after discovering the product contains dry milk powder tied to a supplier recall for potential Salmonella contamination, and the action is being handled as an fda salmonella alfredo sauce recall.

The Food and Drug Administration has classified the recall as Class I, its most serious category, indicating a reasonable probability that consuming the product could cause serious adverse health consequences or death, according to the agency.

The recalled product carries product number SSP980713 and covers multiple production batches, as reported by PIX11. The recall notice lists batch ranges and lot identifiers, including Batch 046188 through 046193 with Lot 0126, Batch 047290 through 047296 with Lot 0476, Batch 048029 through 048034 with Lot 0686, and Batch 049089 through 049094 with Lot 1106, according to the report.

The sauce was distributed widely, affecting Illinois and 40 other states, with distribution noted in New York, New Jersey and 38 additional states, PIX11 reported. The company issued the recall voluntarily after the supplier recall prompted concern about possible contamination in the finished product.

Health Risks Impact And Guidance

Salmonella infection symptoms can appear between six hours and six days after exposure, and healthy adults generally recover within a week, according to reporting in the recall coverage.

Younger children, older adults and people with weakened immune systems face the highest risk of severe illness, and some Salmonella infections can require hospitalization, the reports note.

Officials have not reported any illnesses tied to the recalled Alfredo sauce as of the published notices, and the recall action aims to remove any product that might present a public health hazard following the supplier recall for dry milk powder.
