  • Tim's Cascade Snacks Recalls 'Sweet Maui Onion' Potato Chips and Onion Rings Because of Possible Health Risk
March 02, 2010

Out of regard and concern for our consumers, Tim's Cascade Snacks of Algona, Washington is recalling 'SWEET MAUI ONION ’ AND 'HAWAIIAN - SWEET MAUI ONION RINGS ' because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella, 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 Salmonellacan result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis.

There are no known illnesses reported.
