McCain Foods USA is recalling Fire Roasted 1/2" Diced Onion/Pepper Blend because finished product was released after presumptive positive tests for Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella without confirmation.
What this means for you
Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The source text identifies high-risk pathogens (Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella) and notes that product was released after presumptive positive tests. Per the rubric, high-risk pathogens without reported illness typically warrant a score of 3, but the failure to confirm positive tests for these specific pathogens in a food product elevates the risk profile to Severe (4) due to the significant potential for harm.
