Salmonella and Burn Risks Prompt Tomato, Pressure Cooker Recalls

Check your kitchen for the presence of these recalled items: potentially contaminated tomatoes and a model of the SharkNinja pressure cooker that presents a serious burn risk.
Tomato Recall
Tomatoes in 14 states have been recalled because of the risk of contamination with salmonella bacteria, according to an announcement by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The tomatoes are sold in plastic clam shell containers that say “Packed by Ray and Mascari Inc,” with a logo of a tomato wearing black sunglasses.
Anyone with questions or reports of any illness may contact Ray and Mascari at 317-637-0234, Monday through Saturday 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET.
Anyone with questions can contact Jason Breland at 843-866-7707 or 843-599-5154 Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET.
Salmonella is a group of bacteria that is a common cause of foodborne illness that, in healthy people, can result in fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.
Most people recover fully from salmonella infection but some individuals are at risk of severe illness that can lead to hospitalization or even, in rare cases, death. Children under age 5, seniors, and people with weakened immune systems are especially vulnerable.
No illnesses have been reported to date related to the current recalls.
Pressure Cooker Recall
Concerns about serious burn risks have prompted SharkNinja to recall 1.8 million multipurpose pressure cookers sold at Walmart, Costco, Sam’s Club, Amazon, and Target stores nationwide, and online. Additional cookers were sold in Canada.
Some people have said that the lids of the devices can be opened during use, allowing hot food to escape.
The safety commission noted 106 reports of burn injuries. Almost half have been second- or third-degree burns to the face or body. The commission says 26 lawsuits have been filed.
Affected cookers were sold in black and have a 6.5 quart capacity. They include those labeled with the following model numbers:
- OP300
- OP301
- OP301A
- OP302
- OP302BRN
- OP302HCN
- OP302HAQ
- OP302HW
- OP302HB
- OP305
- OP305CO
- OP350CO
Anyone with the device should immediately stop using the pressure-cooker function and contact SharkNinja for a free replacement lid. It is still safe to use the machine’s air-frying function.
For customer support, call SharkNinja toll-free at 888-370-1733 Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. ET or Saturday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET; email at sharkninja@rqa-inc.com; visit the SharkNinja recall page online; or visit ninjakitchen.com and click on “Recalls” under “Support” at the top of the page.
