FDA flags salmonella in even more frozen foods: Full list of products to avoid

"A recall of frozen fruits and vegetables from a salmonella outbreak has gotten worse, as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced an expanded list of affected foods on Wednesday. A recall that began in July has expanded, and Chetak LLC Group has added dozens more frozen vegetables and fruit products under its Deep brand to the recall list. The frozen foods are linked to a salmonella outbreak that has sickened 11 people in 10 states, including the hospitalizations of four people."

"The latest recall affects more than 60 different Deep frozen foods that Chetak said were run on the same equipment as those products that salmonella was detected in previously. "Out of an abundance of caution and given our commitment to public health and safety, Chetak has decided to expand its [voluntary] recall," the company said in a notification to customers. In July and August, Chetak recalled multiple lots of different frozen foods and urged retailers and consumers not to eat, sell, or serve the products."

Chetak LLC expanded a voluntary recall of dozens of Deep-brand frozen fruits and vegetables after salmonella was detected and illnesses were linked to frozen products. The expanded list covers more than 60 Deep frozen foods that were processed on the same equipment as previously contaminated items. Approximately 70 products have been recalled over the past two months, with illnesses occurring from October 2024 through June 2025. Eleven people in 10 states have been sickened and four hospitalized. Several illnesses were linked to frozen sprouted mat (moth) beans and frozen sprouted moong beans. The recalled items were sold nationwide in stores and online.
