Plain-English summary

The recall involves two product variations: Don's Salads Egg Salad (Net Wt. 5 lbs.) manufactured by Aldon Food Corp. in Schwenksville, PA, and Block & Barrel Classic Egg Salad (Net Wt. 5 lbs.) distributed by Sysco Corporation in Houston, TX. The affected products have sell-by dates of June 7, June 9, June 13, and June 15.

The total quantity involved is approximately 3,005 lbs for the Don's Salads brand and 1,885 lbs for the Block & Barrel brand.
