Onion Soup RECALL: Kroger Soup And Dip Mixes Recalled

The onion soup recall announced today, March 1, 2010, affects Kroger onion soup dip mixes and it comes as a result of possible salmonella contamination.

The bacteria may have affected both the Onion Soup & Dip Mix and Beefy Onion Soup & Dip Mix products.

Those affected by the Kroger onion soup recall should contacted Kroger at (800) 632-6900 or visit http://www.kroger.com/recalls.

More from the Associated Press:

The mixes were sold in a number of states and are being recalled from its Kroger, Dillons, Fry's, King Soopers, City Market, Smith's, Food 4 Less, Jay C, Scott's, Owen's, Baker's, Gerbes, Hilander and Pay Less stores.

No illnesses have been reported in connection with the products. But eating food contaminated with salmonella can cause salmonellosis, a potentially life-threatening bacterial foodborne illness.

Kroger said customers who purchased the products should not eat them and return them to the store for a refund or replacement.
