Pre-cut Melon warning

Postby Silver_Surfer1 » Sat Jun 9, '18, 6:43 pm

Be careful of those grocery items with pre-cut melons, etc., as there is a warning out in some states that the items may be the cause of salmonella sickness.

This warning only applies to pre-cut Melons. The whole Melons, etc., are safe supposedly.

The fact that it's only the pre-cut ones would seem to indicate there might be a hygiene problem somewhere in the processing for whoever is supplying these to the affected stores. Very strange.

Yes very Strange indeed it is...maybe there was a lack of control in the product chain ?

More recalls are out concerning pre-cut melons. 9 US States are effected in this recall at the present time. Read more below:

Safer to buy your own melon whole and cut it up yourself, probably.
