Dairyland Produce, LLC, operating as Hardie’s Fresh Foods in Houston and Dallas, TX, is recalling CUCUMBER SELECT 6 CT due to potential Salmonella contamination. The recalled cucumbers were distributed to Costco locations in Houston and Dallas, TX, and are packaged in clear plastic bags. Affected lot codes include: X2377074, X2379602, X2381000, X2381080, X2383400, X2384557, X2384587. The recall was initiated after the supplier, SunFed Produce, LLC, recalled cucumbers linked to reported illnesses potentially caused by Salmonella contamination.
SunFed’s recall was prompted after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) linked the cucumbers to reported salmonellosis illnesses occurring between October 12 and November 15, 2024. Other related cucumber recalls linked to SunFed include, Russ Davis Cucumbers , Marketside Cucumbers, Supreme Produce Cucumbers and Baloian Farms Cucumbers.
Salmonella infections can result in severe illness, particularly in vulnerable populations such as children, the elderly, and individuals with weakened immune systems. Symptoms, including fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain, typically develop within 6 hours to 6 days after exposure and may last 4 to 7 days. Fortunately, no illnesses linked to the recalled products have been reported to date.
Consumers are advised not to consume, sell, or distribute the recalled cucumbers. Affected products should be discarded or returned to the place of purchase for a refund. To prevent cross-contamination, thoroughly clean and sanitize any surfaces or utensils that may have come into contact with the cucumbers. If you have consumed the product and experience symptoms of salmonellosis, contact a healthcare provider immediately.
