Aldi and Hy-Vee shoppers, check your refrigerator for cream cheese products that have been recalled due to possible salmonella contamination.
“In cooperation with Schreiber Foods, Inc., and out of an abundance of caution, ALDI Inc., recalls its Happy Farms Whipped Cream Cheese Spread, Chive & Onion Cream Cheese Spread, Cream Cheese Spread, and Strawberry Cream Cheese Spread products,” the company said in a statement on May 9.
Aldi did not state in the recall announcement if there have been any reported illnesses linked to the recalled cream cheese products.
A representative for Aldi and Schreiber Foods did not immediately respond to ABC News’ request for comment.
On May 6, Hy-Vee, Inc., an Iowa-based grocery retailer, issued a voluntary recall on two varieties of its “Hy-Vee Cream Cheese Spread out of an abundance of caution due to the potential for contamination with Salmonella,” the company said in its notice with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The products were manufactured at different third-party facilities around the Midwest, according to Hy-Vee’s recall notice. The products were sold under Hy-Vee’s private label and bulk packaging programs.
