  • Recall on Several Garden Salad Products

     

    Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/BsF7I8pQXEo

     

    The FDA, Hy-Vee,Inc., ALDI, Fresh Express, and Signature Farms are recalling bagged garden salads.  This product from all of these companies contains possible Cyclospora contamination.  This issue came to light during an outbreak of cyclospora in the upper midwestern US.  This micro-organism produces food poisoning with symptoms of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramping, and low grade fever. Those in poor health or with compromised immune systems are particularly vulnerable.  If you purchased these products, do not consume them but return them to the store for a refund.  You may reach Hy-Vee Customer Care at 1-800-772-4098, ALDI at 1-800-242-5472, Fresh Express at 1-800-242-5472, or Jewel-Osco the seller of Signature Farms at 1-877-723-3929.

  • Costaway Double Baby Strollers Have Been Recalled

     

    Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/uz-XLjGsUkE

     

    The CPSC and the Costaway Company have recalled 3 models of Costaway Double Baby Strollers.  These strollers fail to meet federal safety standard for carriages and strollers.  A child may slip through the seat bottom and activity tray with head entrapment and possible strangulation.  The crotch restraint location creates a large opening through which the child may fall.  Immediately discontinue use of these strollers and contact the Costaway company at 844-242-1885 for a full refund and instructions regarding product return.  These strollers have been sold at costaway.com and amazon.com.
