Dutch Valley Food Distributors INC. recalled Cappuccino Snack Mix 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 Jan 4, 2017.

The recall was triggered by possible Salmonella contamination: "As a result of an ingredient supplier recall, Dutch Valley is issuing a recall on Cappuccino Snack Mix due to the potential for it to be contaminated with 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.

The product reached multiple states, recorded by the FDA as "DE FL GA IA ID IL IN KS MA MD ME MI MN MO MT NJ NY OH PA VA WI WV." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Myerstown, PA. The recall covers 157 cases of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Feb 15, 2017), 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.
