ARCHER FARMS FOUR CHEESE RISOTTO
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- May 4, 2007 -- AULCORP FOOD MARKETERS INC. of TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA is recalling Archer Farms FOUR CHEESE RISOTTO flavor, 6 oz., with "Best If Used By 16JUL2008AA", because it has the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. Salmonella is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. 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.
