Snack Buddies Cucumber Coins Recalled Due to Potential Salmonella Contamination

Snack Buddies Cucumber Coins are being recalled due to potential Salmonella contamination. The affected products were distributed exclusively to California food-service establishments, not retail stores.

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: FDA Class I classification for Salmonella contamination establishes a minimum severity of Severe. Although the contamination is only potential with no reported illnesses or injuries, the high-risk pathogen and official Class I status prevent downgrading below Severe.
