Progressive Produce Red and Yellow Onion Recall Information
On August, 10, 2020, Progressive Produce recalled red and yellow onions supplied by Thomson International due to the ongoing, nationwide Salmonella outbreak. FDA officials are currently investigating Thomson International regarding this outbreak.
The affected onions were sold at West Coast Trader Joe’s (red onions were sold in Arizona, California, Nevada, and Utah) and Ralph’s (yellow onions sold in California). Onions associated with this recall were sold loose in bulk bins. Affected red onions have a PLU sticker with the brand name “Pacific Gold.”

ABOUT SALMONELLA
Common symptoms of salmonellosis (Salmonella infection) may include diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and fever within 12 to 72 hours after eating a contaminated food product. Illness usually lasts from about 4 to 7 days. Most people recover without treatment, however, the diarrhea may be so severe that the patient needs to be hospitalized. Older adults, infants, and persons with weakened immune systems are more likely to develop a severe illness. Questions or concerns about foodborne illness should also be directed to your health care provider.
