Swiss Rolls are being pulled from the shelves of grocery stores nationwide amid a salmonella outbreak.
On Wednesday, Flower Foods announced that it would be issuing a voluntary recall of all of its Swiss Rolls sold at various supermarkets across the United States, including Walmart, Food Lion, and H-E-B, because of a potential salmonella outbreak at its supplier.
The Swiss Ross are being sold under the following brand names: Mrs. Freshley's, Food Lion, H-E-B, Baker's Treat, Market Square, and Great Value.
The company is also recalling its Captain John Derst's Old Fashioned Bread from stores in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
So far, no illnesses or deaths have been reported.
Salmonella infections cause symptoms including fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. It can also lead to serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.
The news comes just a few days after the Centers for Disease Control warned customers not to eat any Kellogg's Honey Smacks cereal and asked all retailers to stop selling it after it was linked to a salmonella outbreak spanning 33 states, sickening at least 100 people.
"Even if some of the cereal has been eaten and no one got sick, throw the rest of it away or return it for a refund," the CDC warned.
