Ukrop’s Homestyle Foods salads are being recalled for foreign material contamination, more specifically pieces of brown hard plastic in a supplier ingredient. This poses a choking and mouth injury hazard. No reports of injuries or adverse reactions have been reported to the company to date in connection with this problem.
