I’ve seen many recalls affect Washington State. Everything from food, cars, to even toys. And sadly, more often than not, they impact my life... this is one of those times. Thanks, cheesy bread!

Salmonella Fears Spark Recall In Washington & Oregon

Some of the bigger grocery chains (and their shoppers) are being warned of a massive product recall that is linked to powdered dairy products.

Champion Foods, the company that produces the foods in question (below), issued an expansion of the recall that started mid-April 2026, which was issued by California Dairies Inc. of Visalia, California. The initial recall was for their powdered milk and powdered buttermilk that were sold in bulk to a wide variety of wholesale manufacturers and distributors (more on the initial recall, visit FDA.gov).

The Focus Of This Expanded Recall

Check your freezers if you’re a fan of cheesy bread, especially Motor City Pizza Co. 5 Cheese Bread (I know I had 2 boxes in mine).

What To Do & Know About Salmonella

If you have any of the recalled items, properly dispose of them and clean any areas that may have come into contact, or, if still sealed, return them to the place of purchase.

If you show signs of Salmonella (such as high fever, vomiting, stomach cramps, diarrhea, and dehydration), contact your health care provider.
