Tomatoes recalled over salmonella risk
Tomatoes have been recalled across the country over a possible salmonella risk. Ray & Mascari Inc, announced the recall of its four packs of Vine Ripe tomatoes May 2, followed by the FDA's notice the next day. The company was notified by Hanshaw & Caping Farms in Immokalee, Florida, of the potential salmonella contamination, prompting the recall. Potentially affected tomatoes were packaged in plastic cartons and had a VINE RIPE TOMATOES label that read "Packed by Ray & Mascari Inc." The tomatoes were shipped to stores in New York, Illinois, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, Mississippi, Tennessee, Ohio, and Wisconsin. But that's not the only tomato recall affecting consumers. Williams Farms Repack LLC has recalled tomatoes sold to wholesalers in South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia due to possible salmonella. That brings the total number of states involved across both recalls to 14. Tomatoes were distributed between April 23 and 28, according to the FDA's notice. No illnesses have been reported in either case. Customers in possession of the affected tomatoes are urged to throw them out, as salmonella can cause diarrhea, stomach cramps, fever, nausea, and vomiting. Meanwhile, several other food recalls have affected Americans in recent weeks. Upper Crust Bakery LP issued a voluntary recall on three of its bread products after glass fragments were discovered on the surface of the loaves, according to an FDA report issued on April 12. The recall affected 89 cases of Ancient Grains Hoagie Rolls, 699 cases of Multigrain Sourdough, and 30 cases of Whole Grain Multigrain bread. All products were sold frozen and packaged in corrugated paper cartons. The recalled breads were sold at stores in six states: California, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Prior to that, a brand of celery sold at Walmart was recalled due to a listeria risk. Duda Farm Fresh Foods, Inc. recalled its washed and ready-to-eat 4-inch/1.6 ounce Marketside Celery Sticks 'due to possibility of contamination with Listeria monocytogenes.'

Bread Recall After ‘Glass Fragments Found' Affects 6 States, FDA Says
There is now a bread recall due to the presence of glass fragments being found on the top of the ... More bread, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. (Photo: Getty) You could call this a glass act. There is now a bread recall due to the presence of glass fragments being found on the top of the bread, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Upper Crust Crest Hill Bakery is voluntarily recalling over 800 cases of its bread. That's a lot of bread. Actually, that's three lots of bread. Specifically, it's Lot #90 of its Ancient Grains Hoagie Rolls involving 89 cases, Lot #90 of its Multigrain Sourdough bread involving 699 cases, and Lout #92 of its Whole Grain Multigrain bread involving 30 cases. The bread affected by the recall was originally sold frozen in paper cartons. If you've bought bread recently, don't loaf around and delay checking your package, the package that the bread came in, that is. If you find the packaging code CP45 on the four ounce container of the Upper Crust Bakery Ancient Grains Hoagie Roll or the packaging code CP12 on the 18 ounce container of the Multigrain Sourdough or the 20 ounce container of the Whole Grain Multigrain varieties, stop eating that peanut butter an hot dog sandwich or whatever else may be using that bread. Instead, throw it away or return it for a refund. The recall initiated on April 12 should affect six states, Pennsylvania, California, Connecticut, Maryland, Delaware and Ohio. Upper Crust Crest Hill Bakery itself is located in Maryland. But even if you are not in one of those states, you may want to check your bread. After all, bread can cross state lines. The FDA recall notice did not specify the size of the glass fragments, how much glass was found and specifically how many bread packages have actually had glass fragments to date. When some type of contamination is found in a food product, often the manufacturer will recall the entire lot that the product was in as a precautionary measure. Naturally, it's not a good idea to eat any glass. There are reasons why people don't routinely munch on stained glass windows. The damage that glass fragments can do to your gastrointestinal tract depends on their sharpness, shape and size. The sharper they are the more likely they are to cut through different parts of your GI tract such as your mouth, throat, esophagus, stomach and intestines. Such cuts can lead to bleeding, damage and infections. Larger glass fragments could lead to obstructions. However, if the glass fragments are small and dull enough, they could pass through your GI tract within days without incident. If you suspect that you ingested some glass fragments, its a good idea to contact your doctor and be on the lookout for any symptoms. Symptoms may include pain in the chest or abdomen, bloating, fever, blood in the stool or coughing up blood. Describe as best you can the glass fragments as there is a difference between ingesting very small grainy fragments versus a glass tumbler versus an entire car window pane. That can help your doctor decide how to handle your situation and your risk of getting cut on the inside. Speaking of cuts. It's not clear how the recent (and perhaps ongoing) cuts of FDA staff and resources may be affecting inspections and food safety oversight. During the past couple of months, the FDA doesn't seem to be issuing as many full press releases about food recalls as it has done in the past. Regardless, you probably don't want to hear of something like a bread recall after you've eaten bread that's been contaminated. So, try to inspect any food that you are about to eat before it goes down you pie hole. Look for any unusual appearance or any foreign substances. In other words, check your bread slice on its outside before you get sliced on the inside.

SharkNinja recalls more than 1.8 million pressure cookers over burn injury reports
Over one million pressure cookers made by SharkNinja are being recalled after customers filed burn injury reports. The Consumer Product Safety Commission and SharkNinja issued a recall on Thursday for the brand's SharkNinja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function Pressure Cookers after 106 reports of burn injuries were filed, which has sparked over two dozen lawsuits against the company. The pressure cooker is black with a 6.5-quart capacity. Affected models include those with the model numbers OP300, OP301, OP301A, OP302, OP302BRN, OP302HCN, OP302HAQ, OP302HW, OP302HB, OP305, OP305CO and OP350CO which are printed on the side of the cookware. 'An additional code following the model number is not part of that model designation. For example, a unit labeled 'OP301 I07' is a model OP301 unit. Any OP300 series replacement pressure cooker lids purchased as an additional part are also included in this recall,' the CPSC report clarified. There were about 1,846,400 pressure cookers recalled, plus another 184,240 sold in Canada. The cookware was sold at Walmart, Costco, Sam's Club, Amazon, and Target stores nationwide and online at from January 2019 through March 2025. Each pressure cooker sold for around $200. Within the 106 reports of burn injuries, there were more than 50 reports of second or third-degree burns to the face or body, according to the CPSC report. Customers who have the pressure cooker are urged to stop using the product's pressure-cooking function and contact SharkNinja for a free replacement lid. However, the report says customers can still use the pressure cookers' other functions, including air frying. The recall comes over one week after Upper Crust Bakery LP issued a voluntary recall on three of its bread products after glass fragments were discovered on the surface of the loaves. The recall affects 89 cases of Ancient Grains Hoagie Rolls, 699 cases of Multigrain Sourdough, and 30 cases of Whole Grain Multigrain bread. All the products were sold frozen and packaged in corrugated paper cartons. Consumers who have purchased these items are urged not to consume them and to return them to their place of purchase for a refund. The loaves of bread were sold at stores in six states: California, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. On April 25, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) classified it as a Class II recall, meaning 'a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.' However, there have not been any reports of injuries due to the recalled breads at the time of writing.

Bread containing ‘glass fragments' recalled in six states
Upper Crust Bakery LP has issued a voluntary recall on three of its bread products after glass fragments were discovered on the surface of the loaves, according to an FDA report issued on April 12. The recall affects 89 cases of Ancient Grains Hoagie Rolls, 699 cases of Multigrain Sourdough, and 30 cases of Whole Grain Multigrain bread. All the products were sold frozen and packaged in corrugated paper cartons. Consumers who have purchased these items are urged not to consume them and to return them to their place of purchase for a refund. The recalled breads were sold at stores in six states: California, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. On April 25, the FDA classified it as a Class II recall, meaning 'a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.' However, there have not been any reports of injuries due to the recalled breads at the time of writing. There has already been a wide range of food and drink recalls issued in the U.S. in 2025. S. Martinelli & Co. recently issued a voluntary recall of 7,234 cases of its apple juice in March due to potential contamination with patulin. According to the FDA, patulin is 'a toxic substance produced by molds that may grow on apples.' Previously, patulin was 'found to occur at high levels in some apple juice products offered for sale in or import into the U.S.' The recall pertains to certain four-packs of 10-ounce round glass apple juice bottles that were sold across 28 states, some of which include Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, and Missouri. The FDA defined the recall of Martinielli's apple juice as Class II on April 22. On April 10, celery sold at Walmart was also affected by a recall over a possible listeria risk. Duda Farm Fresh Foods, Inc. announced that its washed and ready-to-eat Marketside Celery Sticks, with a best-by date of March 23, should be thrown out. The product was sold at Walmart stores in 29 states. Also last month, Johnsonville, LLC, recalled approximately 22,672 pounds of its cheddar bratwurst product. This was because the sausages may have been contaminated 'with foreign material, specifically hard plastic.' The recall was initiated after Johnsonville, LLC received complaints from two different customers reporting hard plastic found in their bratwurst.
