FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - March 12, 2010 - Alexandria, MN - Tastefully Simple is voluntarily recalling select 1.1-ounce retail packages and 0.3-ounce samples of Toasted Garlic & Parmesan Cheese Ball Mix. The company, along with others in the food industry, is joining in the efforts of a nationwide ingredient recall to protect consumers from potential Salmonella exposure.
The company was notified about this potential issue by one of its ingredient suppliers.

Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.
No illnesses regarding this product have been reported to the company to date. However, Tastefully Simple has decided to initiate this voluntary recall because of its commitment to the safety and health of the public – and its commitment to offering only the highest quality products.
This recall applies only to a small number of retail packages of Toasted Garlic & Parmesan Cheese Ball Mix (Item: 723200) and sample packets (Item: 723270) shipped since February 12, 2010.
