The Bakersfield, Calf.-based food company said that a North Carolina health official detected the possibility of salmonella in a single 16-ounce bag during a routine sampling. Bolthouse Farms said it has not received any reports of consumer illness or other consumer complaints related to this product. The company said it is recalling the chips out of an abundance of caution. About 5,600 cases of the 16-ounce bags shipped to retail customers in the United States and Canada are being recalled.
