FDA Recalls Member’s Mark Super Greens Linked to Salmonella Outbreak
Imagine a special green powder made from a plant called moringa.
Some people in America got sick with a tummy bug called Salmonella after eating this powder.
The people who check our food, the FDA, found out that a part of the powder came from a company in India.
This company's powder was likely the reason people got sick.
So, the FDA told all the stores, like Sam's Club, to take the green powder off the shelves.
They also said that anyone who has the powder at home shouldn't eat it.
Salmonella is a germ that can make your stomach hurt, and sometimes it's serious enough for people to go to the hospital.
The FDA is still looking to see if other foods might have the same problem.
The FDA has recalled Member’s Mark Super Greens dietary supplement powder across the US.
The recall is due to a Salmonella Richmond outbreak linked to a moringa leaf powder supplied by Vallon Farm Direct from Jodhpur, India.
At least 11 cases of Salmonella infection were reported across seven states, with three hospitalizations.
Salmonella was detected in leftover powder samples from patients' homes, matching the outbreak strain.
The FDA is investigating the exact point of contamination and any other potentially affected products.
