Kroger Co. has recalled four of its spices from the market due to Salmonella contamination in the products found when tested by FDA. The spices include Kroger garlic powder, Kroger ground cinnamon, Kroger Bac'n Buds and Kroger coarse ground black pepper.

FDA tested a sample of Kroger garlic powder from a store in in North Augusta, South Carolina and found Salmonella contamination in them. It is to be noted that no illness in association with consumption of these products are reported by far. The company recalled four of its products out of abundant caution around the end of the last week. Kroger recalled four spices though only garlic powder was tested positive for bacterial contamination because they are produced in the same equipment, according to USA Today.
