All Dairy Blend FFE-9967: Lot # s 1609214-16, 5,050 pounds, packed in 50# poly lined Kraft paper bags, expiration date April 1st, 2017.

Franklin Farms East recalled All Dairy Blend FFE-9967: 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 Dec 9, 2016.

The recall was triggered by possible Salmonella contamination: "Franklin Farms East & Meadow Mountain Nutritional have initiated a recall because several products of theirs have the potential 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 "Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Alabama." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Frostburg, MD. The recall covers 5,050 pounds 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.
