Welcome to today’s edition of “The Recall Guy”! I am here to keep you informed about the latest and most critical FDA recalls on food, drugs and medical devices.

This week has seen several important product recalls due to potential bacterial contamination. 4Earth Farms has recalled various organic and conventional vegetable medleys and organic whole carrots because they may be contaminated with E. coli O121:H19. Baloian Farms is recalling whole fresh American cucumbers sold under the "Pamela" brand because they may be contaminated with Salmonella. Lastly, Russ Davis Wholesale is recalling a variety of products that contain cucumbers from Baloian Farms because those cucumbers may be contaminated with Salmonella. If you have any of these products, you should dispose of them immediately and contact the appropriate company or a healthcare provider if you have questions or concerns.
