Mrs. Grissom’s Salads has issued a voluntary recall of some of their dips and spreads. The products that are part of the recall include cheese spreads, dips, and pimento cheese spread.
Mrs. Grissom’s Salads recalled the products because the Worcestershire sauce used in making them contained anchovies. Anyone with a fish allergy who consumed these products would run the risk of a potentially life-threatening allergic reaction.
The cheese dip products were sold at retail grocery and Dollar Stores throughout Georgia, Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, and West Virginia. Kenneth Funger, CEO of Mrs. Grissom’s Salads, announced that the company discovered the issue two days ago as part of a routine inspection of their Nashville processing plant.
After the many incidents of salmonella caused by the Peanut Corp. of America’s gross disregard for public safety earlier this winter, it is refreshing to see the CEO of a food manufacturing company acting responsible when faced with a decision of whether to place human safety over profits.
If you have any of the defective products that are part of this recall, you can return them to the store where you purchased them for a full refund. If you or a loved one has suffered a serious allergic reaction to any of the defective Mrs. Grissom’s Salads cheese spreads, you should contact an experienced product liability lawyer immediately. You may be eligible to receive compensation for your damages.
