Select lots of Gyro Family Kits have been recalled from Sprouts stores after the company was alerted by its supplier Reser’s Fine Foods, Inc. of potential Salmonella contamination of the cucumbers within the tzatziki sauce. No illnesses have been reported to date.

Healthy people infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.

The affected product lots of the following product:
