United States

The Quaker Oats Company today announced an expansion of the December 15, 2023, recall to include additional cereals, bars, and snacks because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. The affected products are sold throughout the 50 United States, Puerto Rico, Guam and Saipan.

Salmonella, is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis.
