The affected products are Chefs Kitchen Fresh Salsa and ReadyMeals Fresh Salsa, which contain jalapeños recalled by Direct Roots, a distributor for Taylor Farms. The recall is part of a broader FDA recall involving Coast Citrus Distributors. Customers are advised not to consume the recalled items and to return them to Jewel-Osco for a full refund.
