An Indiana company is recalling 8-ounce packages of organic moringa leaf powder nationwide because they may be contaminated with Salmonella, and the way the problem surfaced is the part worth noticing. No one got sick. No sample of this product tested positive. The signal came from a supplier testing a different item.
Foods Alive Inc. of Angola, Indiana, said its supplier notified the company that a sample of the supplier's super green powder mix, collected at retail, had tested positive for Salmonella. Foods Alive then pulled its own moringa powder, suspended production and distribution, and is working with the FDA on an investigation. The source of the problem has not been determined.
