Salmonella outbreak tied to recalled cucumbers has now sickened ...
Feds warn against eating multiple products containing the vegetable, including salads, wraps, party trays and meal kits.
www.cbsnews.comI don’t have live access to the latest news right now. Here’s a quick summary of what’s recently been reported on salmonella recalls linked to salad items, based on the latest publicly available coverage I can reference:
-
Last year and into early 2025, multiple recalls were tied to contaminated cucumbers used in prepared salads, vegetable trays, and sushi, with broader recalls affecting products across many states. These actions involved major retailers and distributors and were linked to outbreaks of Salmonella infections.

-
Canada and the U.S. issued recalls for specific Taylor Farms salad kits and other pre-packaged salad products due to Salmonella concerns, prompting consumer advisories not to eat recalled items. These recalls were reported by national food safety authorities and covered by major news outlets. [sources: CFIA/Canadian press coverage; CBS News/Canadian recall coverage]
-
The recall landscape for salad-related Salmonella is ongoing, with new product categories (including ready-to-eat salads, deli kits, and certain vegetable trays) periodically added as investigations evolve. Consumers are advised to check recall notices from the FDA (U.S.) and CFIA (Canada), and to discard or return any recalled items and sanitize surfaces and containers that may have touched them.

- Create a quick checklist for verifying recalled products in your home and at a local store.
- Provide a short timeline of notable recalls in the past 12–24 months for context.
