NO SALAD IS SAFE, SHEEPLE! Earlier this month, romaine lettuce from California was recalled due to listeria concerns, and today, the salad sabotage continues, with the news that bagged salad mix might be tainted with salmonella.

The 3,265 cases of salad mix are being recalled due to their "potential to be contaminated with Salmonella following a random test conducted on a finished package of spinach by the State of Washington Department of Agriculture," said the FDA.

The salads were marketed under the names Fresh Selections, HEB, Marketside and Taylor Farms and included bags of Romaine Blend, Asian Salad, Caesar Salad and Spring Mix, and were sold in supermarkets in New York and 14 other states. America: just go out and eat a steak already.
