The Latest Information on the Salmonella Outbreak

As the well-publicized nationwide salmonella outbreak broadens in scope, the Amherst Health Department would like to provide citizens of Amherst with the most up-to-date information available to us, and this blog will be updated regularly for the benefit of Amherst citizens seeking information.

To the best of our knowledge, all Amherst-area grocery outlets have removed recalled products from their shelves. However, consumers may still have previously purchased products in their cabinets that must be identified and disposed of. To that end, we are providing several important links which consumers can access to obtain the most accurate recall lists made available by the FDA and CDC.

For an accurate list of recalled products, please click here for access to the FDA's list which is updated on a daily basis to reflect the latest additions.

If you have further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact the Amherst Health Department at 259-3077.
