Danish Crown A/S, a leading meat processing company, has issued a recall for its Tulip Turkey Bacon due to potential salmonella contamination. The product was distributed across various retail outlets. The recall was initiated after salmonella was detected in a sample from the company's raw material supplier … See More
on a routine testing, prompting the company to take immediate action to ensure consumer safety.

The recall specifically involves the 110 grams Tulip Turkey Bacon, bearing the EAN number 5707196171938. The product was produced on March 26, 2024, and has a best before date of April 30, 2024.

Salmonella is an organism that 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.

In case you are experiencing Salmonella symptoms, it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.

Been buying this Fairlife now for a while but noticed while drinking some the other day that it had a strange aftertaste. It didn't taste sour, just off and not as it usually does.

I got rid of the container knowing it wasn't as it should be … See More
and woke up not feeling well. My lower and upper abdomen were extremely swollen and I had horrible cramping as the day progressed I felt worse and worse and my stomach was really messed up.

That evening I opened another container of Fairlife and it had the same odd after taste. I'll be honest because I've never had an issue I still didn't think this was the cause of my issue, in fact I thought my taste was off!

I spent the next few days staying away from straight milk but was using in my coffee and my lattes but was insanely bloated. My husband and I were thinking something was horribly wrong because I looked several months pregnant and had to wear leggings to work Friday. The whole situation was extremely unusual.

My daughter had a cookie and asked for some milk. Upon taking a sip she asked if if it was a different milk and I knew then that it wasn't my tastebuds it was the milk. She said she too felt it had a strange taste... luckily she only had a sip.

I've been absolutely miserable. My clothes don't fit due to bloating, I still have cramps and diarrhea. Both containers were good until June and are from batch 26-207. My husband suggested I check for recalls, come to find that the company has had hundreds of people get sick from this batch and denies issuesz I also learned that they have a lawsuit in regards to animal cruelty which is good to know. I'll never buy their milk again. Get it together cola-cola. #$$$hungry #animalabuse.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Stomach Pain, Cramps, Bloating, Swelling
