You can view the labels of the recalled products on the USDA website.

The products that are impacted by the recall were shipped to institutional and retail locations nationwide. They will have establishment number “EST. P-7345” inside the USDA mark of inspection, according to the USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service.

FSIS officials say they discovered the problem with their public health partners while investigating a multistate outbreak of Salmonella Schwarzengrund illnesses. The outbreak involves five patients from two states.

Health officials collected three Butterball ground turkey samples from a home in Wisconsin where four of the patients involved in the outbreak live.

FSIS officials are now concerned that people may have recalled products in their freezers. If you have any of these products at home, you should throw them away or return them. You should not eat them.
