Halva Recall Lawsuit

As somebody who loves to eat Halva, I was disappointed in seeing that a certain brand of Halva is being recalled due to the presence of salmonella. If you or a loved one has suffered from food poisoning after eating recalled Halva, you may be entitled to compensation by filing a food poisoning lawsuit.

On March 25, 2021, Kareem Mart (the maker of Kareem Chef) recalled some of their Halva products because they have the potential to be contaminated with salmonella, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infection in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.

This recall was published on the U.S. Food and Drug Adninistration (FDA) website: https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-market-withdrawals-safety-alerts/kareem-mart-recalls-halva-because-possible-health-risk

According to the CDC website about salmonella food poisoning:

  • Most people who get ill from Salmonella have diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps.
  • Symptoms usually begin 6 hours to 6 days after infection and last 4 to 7 days.
  • Most people recover without specific treatment and should not take antibiotics. Antibiotics are typically used only to treat people who have severe illness or who are at risk for it.
  • Some people’s illness may be so severe that they need to be hospitalized.
