All meal delivery services from all dishes and Hello, have removed the onions found in their food kits sold for a specific period of time due to the possible contamination with Salmonella. The two retreats follow the onion retirement announcement last week, which was carried out along with an ongoing investigation into a salmonella outbreak of several states in the United States.
Everyone and Hello Fresh are services that send customer kits that contain all the ingredients to make a meal. These kits can, depending on the private recipe, include packaged onions, which both companies must be discarded without eating due to the risk of salmonella pollution.
The withdrawal applies to onions in kits received between July 7 and September 8. For both companies. Although enough time has passed that no client will have these onions in a new state, they may still be present in the freezers of some customers. Companies say that the onions received in their food kits after September 8 are not affected by this withdrawal.
Companies point out that cooking onions at 165f (74c) or more will kill any salmonella bacteria that may be present. However, not all consumers have cooked their onions, since the food product is often eaten as garrison or raw ingredient in many meals. Salmonella bacteria can also be extended inadvertently to other foods and surfaces through contact.
Customers of any of the companies that may still be in possession of food kits on -on -handed kits between the aforementioned dates should consult the withdrawal notices to obtain complete identification details, including product codes. The Helllo Fresh withdrawal can be found on the FDA website here, and the withdrawal of all dishes can be found on the agency’s website here.
