DES MOINES, Iowa (KCAU) — Hy-Vee Inc. has announced that a recent supplier recall may have affected some of its products, so the company is issuing a voluntary recall out of an abundance of caution.

According to a release, Hy-Vee is recalling two varieties of its Hy-Vee Cream Cheese Spread and its bulk-packaged Cookies & Cream Mix. These products have been flagged for possible contamination of salmonella, though no illnesses have been reported.

Look at the following information to determine if you've purchased one of these products:

The release states that these products are manufactured at different third-party facilities around the Midwest which are then sold under Hy-Vee's private label. The decision to recall these products was made after the manufacturers notified Hy-Vee of the potential issue.

Affected products were distributed to businesses across the company's eight-state region including Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.

Additionally, these products were removed from store shelves. Customers who purchased these products should dispose of them or return them to their local Hy-Vee store for a full refund.

Questions regarding this matter can be directed to Hy-Vee Customer Care Representatives at 800-772-4098.
