The products were sold in all 50 states plus Puerto Rico.

The initial recall, announced in mid-December, was first expanded in early January to include additional products.

The latest item was added to the recall list on Wednesday, Jan. 31 -- a granola bar with Best Before dates of Feb. 10 or Feb. 11, 2024 that was discontinued in September 2023.

"Consumers should check their pantries and dispose of the product," Quaker Oats said.

To date, Quaker said it has received no confirmed reports of illness related to the products covered by the recall. 

Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. 

In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis.
