Sabra is issuing a voluntary recall on some packages of its Classic Hummus due to a possible salmonella contamination.
In a statement issued by the Food and Drug Administration on Monday, Sabra is recalling approximately 2,100 cases of 10 oz. Classic Hummus following a routine screening by the FDA.
The agency said no other products were affected by the recall. Also, no illnesses or consumer complaints linked to these products have been reported, the FDA said.
The packages of hummus contain a “Best Before Date” of “4/26/21” along with a timestamp of Feb. 10 between “18:00:27 and 23:49:00,” reads the notice.

The Sabra products were distributed in 16 states: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Indiana, Mississippi, Maine, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, New Jersey, Utah, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin.
Customers who purchased the affected hummus are urged to return it to the store where they purchased it or visit www.sabrahummusrecall.com for a refund.
Eating food contaminated with salmonella can cause salmonellosis, which causes symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal cramps and fever within 12 to 72 hours after consumption, the FDA says.
