Florida - Wednesday December 20, 2023: Quaker Oats has announced the recall of specific granola bars and granola cereals listed below because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.
The products listed are sold throughout the 50 United States, Puerto Rico, Guam and Saipan.
To date, Quaker has received no confirmed reports of illness related to the products covered by this recall. Quaker has informed the FDA of its actions.
Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea, which may be bloody, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.
