Kalera Public Limited Company is recalling more than 600 cases of lettuce due to concerns of possible contamination with salmonella.

The voluntary recall includes 633 cases of Krunch, Butter and Romaine whole-head variety lettuces, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. These are the codes of the affected lot —001293 and 001294 — which can be found on the product label.

The affected lettuces were distributed to some retail and food service customers in Florida. Health officials said the stores have been notified of the voluntary recall and the health concern. There have been no reports of illnesses, the company said.

Symptoms of salmonella infection include diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps that manifest anytime between six hours and six days after being infected with the bacteria. There is a possibility that infected people under the age of 5 or over 64, and those with weakened immune systems could get seriously ill and require hospitalization.

No other Kalera products are affected by the recall, the company said.

Kalera urged retailers and those who bought the recalled products to discard the items away or contact the company at (407) 574-8204 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday, for reimbursement.

    Another FDA strike to starve the American public. As the Slave Party knows if you control Media, Medicine, Schools and food, you have successfully completed the take over of every necessity for life and now have complete control of every Serf/Slave you preside over. So keep voting DEMON RAT slave lovers.

    I HAVE NO PITY FOR THE PEOPLE THAT VOTED DEMOCRAPS. THEY WILL GET JUST WHAT THEY DESERVE. I DO PITY THE POOR PEOPLE THAT LIVE IN NEW YORK WITH ALL THE CRIME AND LIARS HAVING THEIR WAY. AND ALL THE OTHER CITIES WITH CRIME OUT OF CONTROL.

    THE INFLATION, SHORTAGES OF FOOD, GAS ETC WILL ONLY GET WORSE. YOU CAN’ T CHANGE BIDON. HE’S NOT ON OUR SIDE. HE WILL CUT OIL PRODUCTION, GET US INTO ANOTHER WAR, AND DRAG US DOWN.

    CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW BLIND SOME PEOPLE ARE. THEY VOTED WITHOUT THINKING. HOW CRAZY CAN THEY GET.
    VOTED ON A DEMENTED, SICK, STUPID IDIOT IN PA.

    I AM THOROUGHLY DISGUSTED WITH THE NEWS. THEY ARE SOME OF THE WORST LIARS. YOU CANNOT BELIEVE ANYTHING THEY WRITE. AND THE COMMENTATORS PICK IT UP AND WE LISTEN TO THEM ON TV OR RADIO. WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE? THEY ARE BEING BRAIN WASHED.
