According to the FDA, there is a multi-state outbreak of Cyclospora infections potentially linked to salads containing those ingredients. Cyclospora is a microscopic parasite that can affect the intestinal tract and cause diarrhea. It is treated with antibiotics.
As a result, Giant Eagle, Walmart and Aldi have issued recalls for several Fresh Express salad products. Customers should throw those products away immediately.
The recalled products are clearly marked with the letter “Z” at the beginning of the Product Code, which is located on the upper right-hand corner of the front of the package. Those products containing iceberg lettuce, red cabbage and carrots and displaying the Product Code Z178, or a lower “Z” number are recalled.
Those with questions or to get a refund, may contact Fresh Express Consumer Response Center toll-free at (800) 242-5472 Monday – Friday during the hours of 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Eastern time.

I got e-coli from a bagged salad once. Didnt hear about the recall until it was too late. Very painful for about 3 days.
I still eat bagged salad.

I’ve dedicated my life to helping older adults, people living with serious illness and the vulnerable population. This topic impacts the people I care for. In this video I break down the Cyclospora outbreak spreading rapidly across 31 states and EXACTLY what’ll keep your family safe.
A parasite outbreak is causing explosive diarrhea across America. A woman in Denver went to the bathroom FORTY TIMES (!!) in a SINGLE DAY. She’s one of THOUSANDS of Americans hit by a parasite most people had never heard of a week ago: Cyclospora cayetanensis. Even scarier: washing your salad won’t stop it, freezing won’t kill it, and one state is reporting TWICE as many cases as the CDC says exist in the whole country. Everyone is behind the curve, and I did HOURS of research to help you stay safe and protect your loved ones.”
