Salad Kits from Central Coast Farm Recalled Over Dressing Mix-Up

A Central Coast farm has recalled salad kits sold throughout California and the U.S. for including the wrong salad dressing with allergens inside the kit.

Taylor Fresh Foods, located in Salinas, is voluntarily recalling the Taylor Farms Honey Balsamic Salad Kit 6/8.3oz. because it may contain undeclared sesame and soy allergens.

“People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to sesame and soy run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products,” the company stated in an FDA release.

Taylor Fresh Foods Master packs — individual packets of dressing and toppings supplied by Latitude 36 Foods and included in Taylor Farms salad kits — incorrectly included Asian Sesame Ginger dressing rather than the intended Honey Balsamic Vinaigrette dressing, leading to the possibility of undeclared sesame and soy allergens in some Taylor Farms Honey Balsamic Salad Kits.

The Taylor Farms Honey Balsamic Salad Kit 6/8.3oz in scope of this recall was distributed in AL, AZ, CA, CO, DE, FL, GA, IN, KS, KY, LA, MI, MO, MS, NJ, NY, OH, OR, PA, TN, TX, UT, VA, WA and WV and has code dates starting with “TFRS” and “Best If Used By” date up to and including September 4, 2025. The product code can be found in the upper right-hand corner of the packaging.

The company states that consumers who have the recalled salad kit should discard it immediately and not consume it and refunds are available at the location of purchase.

“There have been no illnesses reported to Taylor Farms in connection with the recalled product. This recall does not apply to any other Taylor Farms products or brands,” the company stated.
