Issue

The food recall warning issued on April 29, 2022 has been amended to correctly identify the affected products. The amendments for these products are marked by an asterisk (*).

Foodfest International 2000 Inc. is recalling various Elite brand products from the marketplace due to possible Salmonella contamination. Label information may appear in English or Hebrew.

The recalled products have been sold nationally.

What you should do

• If you think you became sick from consuming a recalled product, call your doctor
• Check to see if you have the recalled products
• Do not consume recalled products
• Recalled products should be thrown out or returned to the location where they were purchased

Food contaminated with Salmonella may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick. Young children, pregnant women, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems may contract serious and sometimes deadly infections. Healthy people may experience short-term symptoms such as fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps and diarrhea. Long-term complications may include severe arthritis.

What is being done
