Fratelli Beretta USA recalls over 11,000 pounds of product as CDC investigates 24 cases across 14 states.
- Federal safety officials are investigating whether recalled meat samplers sold at Sam's Club warehouses across the country are involved in an outbreak of salmonella that has stricken two dozen people in 14 states.
- Fratelli Beretta USA earlier this month recalled more than 11,000 pounds of product after an unopened sample collected by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture tested positive for salmonella.
- Testing is being done to determine if the salmonella in the sample is the same outbreak strain behind 24 illnesses, including five hospitalizations.
- The recall involves 18-ounce plastic tray packages of 'Busseto Foods Charcuterie Sampler Proscuitto, Sweet Soppressata and Dry Coppa' with a lot code L075330300 and best-by date of April 27, 2024.
- The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service is concerned the product may still be in people's refrigerators.
