MTR Sambar Powder Recalled by SHRI SHIVA Foods, Inc. Due to Possible Salmonella Contamination
Posted on: November 21, 2016 Food Poisoning Lawyer
On November 7, 2016, The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that SHRI SHIVA Inc., of Long Island City, NY, issued a recall of MTR Sambar Powder because it may be contaminated with Salmonella. When a company announces a recall, market withdrawal or safety alert, the FDA posts the company’s announcement as a public service.
Recalled Sambar Powder Recall Due to Salmonella
The Salmonella potential was discovered by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration through previous product samplings. Even though the F.DA. discovered the potential for Salemonella, there have been no illnesses reported to date.
The Sambar Powder by SHRI SHIVA Food was packaged in 200g plastic pouches. The pouches were then sold under the MTR brand and stamped whttps://feeneylawfirm.com/mtr-sambar-powder-recalled-by-shri-shiva-foods-inc-due-to-possible-salmonella-contamination/ith MFD.27.10.15 on the back. Lot NO#15J27C. If you feel you purchased this product and still have it, you can contact the store of purchase for a full refund. Unlike some recalls which affects a large part of the country or region, this product seems to have limited distribution. The product was sold between January 2016 and October 2016 and was distributed through one New York and one Ohio warehouse. No specific retail locations have been mentioned.
