(WJW) — Certain packages of tomatoes that were sold in several states have been recalled due to a possible salmonella risk, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced on Saturday.

On Friday, Ray & Mascari Inc. recalled four-count vine-ripe tomatoes packaged in 20-ounce clam shell containers.

The company issued the recall after learning the lot of tomatoes they received and repackaged from Hanshaw & Capling Farms in Florida may have been contaminated with salmonella.

The recalled products were sold at Gordon Food Service stores in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Mississippi, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Wisconsin, the FDA said.

“The 4-count plastic clam shells have a VINE RIPE TOMATOES label containing a Packed by Ray & Mascari Inc., Indianapolis, IN 46204,” the recall stated. “The master case would be a cardboard produce box with a lid, containing 12 4-count containers. The master case label would have Lot# RM250424 15250B or Lot# RM250427 15250B.”

Anyone who purchased the recalled tomatoes should throw them away.

There have been no known illnesses linked to the recall. Customers who have questions or want to report an illness should reach out to Ray & Mascari Inc. at 1-317-637-0234.

Salmonella is an organism that can cause serious infections in young kids, elderly people or immunocompromised individuals. According to the Cleveland Clinic, it’s the most common type of bacterial food poisoning in the country.

Salmonella symptoms include diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps. Symptoms normally start six hours to six days after eating infected food.
