| Possible salmonella contamination has prompted the recall of bulk and retail-size packages of alfalfa sprouts distributed by Michigan-based Living Foods, Inc. The company said one package of the sprouts tested positive for salmonella and it is working with federal and state officials to determine the source of the salmonella, the Associated Press reported. The recall includes 4-ounce cups, 4-ounce bags, 5-pound bulk containers, and boxes of four 1-pound plastic bags. All the products have a sell-by date of Oct. 2. Consumers with these products should discard them, Living Foods said. No illnesses associated with the sprouts have been reported, according to the company, the AP reported. |
