The Hawaiʻi State Department of Health Food and Drug Branch is alerting residents to another voluntary recall alert by the Quaker Oats Company of an additional granola bar snack product, Quaker Chewy Dipps Llama Rama, because of potential Salmonella contamination.
These products are sold nationwide, including most retailers and supermarkets in Hawaiʻi.
Healthy people infected with Salmonella should monitor themselves for the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping, and/or fever. Salmonella may result in more serious but rare ailments such as arterial infections, endocarditis, arthritis, muscle pain, eye irritation, and urinary tract symptoms. Children, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune symptoms may be at greater risk of serious and sometimes fatal Salmonella infections.
