The companies Safeway and Albertson stores in Washington, Oregon and Northern Idaho are recalling certain bakery products because they could make you sick.
They are issuing a voluntarily recall of products made with Valley Milk Products LLC’s High Heat Nonfat Dry Milk Powder, including cream cakes, eclairs, parfaits, and essentially any other baked good that uses a vanilla cream custard.
The companies confirmed that the products were recalled in Washington, Northern Idaho, and Oregon. The products’ sell-by date is December 20th or earlier, and they were sold on or before Thursday, December 15th.
Separately, Publix issued recall for some of its pancake and waffle mix varieties due to the salmonella contamination concerns. Experts have warned that salmonella risk could prompt more companies to issue recalls for more products in near future.
