Soom Foods Tahini: Soom Foods Chocolate Tahini, 12 oz. Sweet Tahini Halva Spread (6/case)

Soom Foods recalled Soom Foods Tahini: in a Class I action — the FDA's most serious tier, reserved for products with a reasonable probability of causing serious health consequences or death on Nov 26, 2018.

The recall was triggered by possible Salmonella contamination: "Soom Foods is recalling its tahini and chocolate tahini halva spread because their manufacturer, Achdut LTD. is recalling its Tahini products of all packages and sizes produced in the following dates: April 7th to May 21st 2018, due to a possible contamination of Salmonella." Salmonella is one of the most common causes of U.S. foodborne illness, with symptoms that typically appear within six hours to six days of exposure.

Distribution was broad: the FDA record describes it as "The Soom Tahini products were distributed throughout the United States, through distributors, retailers, subscription box companies and via Amazon .com," which places this among the wider-reach recalls on the site. Consumers across the affected area should check product on hand. The recalling firm is based in Philadelphia, PA. The recall covers 195 6-pack cases of 12oz chocolate tahini of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Feb 13, 2019), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved. The historical record remains useful for tracking a brand's recall pattern over time.
