The recall of over two dozen candy lines was prompted by concerns that they may be contaminated with salmonella, a common cause of food poisoning. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued the recall due to potential health risks associated with the affected products. These sweet treats, including caramel pretzels and cookies, were distributed nationwide to retailers like Walmart, Hy-Vee, Dollar Central, and Target, as well as other wholesalers. Salmonella can cause symptoms like diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps, especially affecting vulnerable individuals such as the elderly or those with weakened immune systems.
