Recall hits millions of pounds of food from Harris Teeter, 7-Eleven, Kroger and more

You may want to think twice about those grab-and-go-food items.

Millions of pounds of ready-to-eat salads and premade food items including entrees, burritos, wraps and pizzas at several big name retailers such as Harris Teeter, Kroger, Whole Foods, 7-Eleven, Trader Joe's and Walmart have been recalled due to the potential risk of listeria and salmonella contamination.

The recalls stem from those issued by a dozen food manufacturers including Bakkavor Foods, Envolve Foods and Ruiz Food Products. The food makers notified the U.S. Department of Agriculture about products they shipped that could include ingredients such as corn, diced onions and other vegetables possibly tainted with bacteria – all provided from a single company, McCain Foods, the USDA says.

It seems like this is becoming a weekly occurrence. It doesn't instill much confidence in the food industry.  :thumbdown:

There's one upside to having an erratic heart, I can't eat any processed foods due to such additives as MSG, Nitrites/Nitrates, all interfere with my electrical system.
Not that I ever ate that crap, but there were times as a younger man I'd be working well after midnight and needed something to quell the pangs of hunger and settled on that crap.
Who knows folks, it may have been those very additives that led to my heart issues, so they're best to be avoided. Just eat healthy.
