Your breakfast routine may require some additional attention. According to a statement<\/a> published by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and a release<\/a> from Aldi, a bunch of cream cheese<\/a> just got recalled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On May 6, Hy-Vee, Inc. announced a voluntary recall of its cream cheese due to potential salmonella contamination. According to the company\u2019s statement, the affected spread was distributed in eight states: Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just a few days later, on May 9, Aldi released a statement alerting customers of a voluntary recall of their cream cheese as a result of salmonella risk. This warning spans 29 states. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The potentially contaminated products from Hy-Vee were distributed to Hy-Vee, Hy-Vee Drugstore, Hy-Vee Fast and Fresh, and Dollar Fresh Market. The recall includes Hy-Vee Whipped Cream Cheese Spread, Hy-Vee Cream Cheese Spread, Hy-Vee To Go Cookies and Cream Mix, and Hy-Vee Cookies and Cream Mix. Check out this release<\/a> for a complete list of codes, best-by-dates, and product images.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The products at risk from Aldi were sold at stores nationwide under the labels Whipped Cream Cheese Spread, Chive and Onion Cream Cheese Spread, Cream Cheese Spread, and Strawberry Cream Cheese Spread. Review this release<\/a> for more details on the codes and sell-by dates.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to both statements, there have not been any reports of illness yet. However, both companies recommend that you check your fridge immediately and discard any affected tubs or return them to your local store for a refund if you see any. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dairy contaminated with salmonella can appear in good standing since the bacteria can\u2019t alter the smell, taste, or appearance of food. That\u2019s why tossing your tainted product away is important to avoid any illness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trust us, you do not want to catch salmonella accidentally. The bacteria is responsible for more than a million infections, 26,500 hospitalizations, and hundreds of deaths in the US every year,\u00a0 according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this recall occurring, you\u2019ll want to familiarize yourself with the symptoms, which can include diarrhea, fever, stomach pain, nausea, and vomiting, according to the FDA<\/a>. If you\u2019re experiencing any of these signs, contact a doctor immediately.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
