- NEW HOPE MILLS recalls certain Crepe MIX due to possible contamination with Salmonella
Auburn, NY, 2016-Dec-13 — /EPR Retail News/ — NEW HOPE MILLS of Auburn, NY, is voluntarily recalling limited quantities of NEW HOPE MILLS Crepe MIX as it has the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.

Salmonella is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis.
The affected New Hope Mills Crepe MIX was shipped to distributors and retailers in the New York and Pennsylvania areas between the dates of 8/23/2016 and 9/20/2016.
