Fratelli Beretta U.S.A.—the parent company of Busseto Foods—is recalling approximately 11,097 pounds (5.5 tons) of Busseto Foods’ ready-to-eat charcuterie meat products that may be contaminated with Salmonella, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).

The items were shipped to Sam’s Club distribution centers in Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Texas, and earmarked for further distribution to Sam’s Club stores in those regions.

Those at FSIS say the unopened, intact, charcuterie sampler that led to this recall was tested by the state of Minnesota and the results showed it was positive for the Salmonella strain. FSIS is working with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and state public health partners to investigate this potential multistate outbreak of Salmonella. Further testing is ongoing to determine if the product sample is related to the outbreak.
