Albertson’s Inc. has announced that one of its suppliers had issued a precautionary warning over one-pound bags of peeled baby carrots after a bag in Canada tested positive for salmonella.
Although none of the potentially affected bags remain in its stores, the grocery chain said it was urging customers to discard the product or return any such bags to the store for a refund "out of an abundance of caution."
The warning issued by Grimmway Farms affects bags with a "Best If Used By" date of June 17.
Albertson’s said there have been no positive tests of any illness or consumer complaints associated with the products.
