Orval Kent Foods Recalls 23,000 Pounds of Amish Macaroni Salad
Orval Kent Foods is voluntarily recalling approximately 23,000 pounds of Amish Macaroni Salad that may contain E. coli bacteria, following a test conducted by the Ohio Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Food Safety. The tests results on a single package of Amish Macaroni Salad prompted the recall.
