Pallet of recalled Alfredo sauce in a warehouse, "RECALLED" labels visible
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has classified a recall of over 900 cases of Alfredo sauce as a Class I event, its most serious designation. This action was prompted by a supplier’s recall of a dry milk powder ingredient due to potential Salmonella contamination, posing a significant health risk.
A Class I recall signifies a reasonable probability that exposure to the product could lead to severe adverse health consequences or even death. The affected product is packaged in 3-pound, 7-ounce sealed poly bags, with 12 bags per case.
The Coffee Connexion Co., Inc., based in Lebanon, Tennessee, initiated the voluntary recall on May 6. The recall is ongoing and covers specific batch numbers and best-by dates spanning from January 12, 2028, to April 20, 2028. The product’s UPC is 0039954921963.
Distribution of the recalled Alfredo sauce extended to 41 states, including Alabama, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, New York, and Texas, among others listed in the FDA enforcement report. Consumers in these states are advised to check their pantries for the affected product.
Salmonella infection can cause severe illness, particularly in young children, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune systems. Symptoms can include fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain, and in some cases, can be fatal. The FDA report did not specify whether any illnesses have been reported in connection with this recall.
The recall, assigned FDA recall number H-0909-2026, received its Class I classification on June 4. The FDA has not issued a press release regarding this specific recall.
