Granola for Nursing Mothers Recalled for Salmonella
A voluntary recall has been issued for a granola product marketed to nursing mothers due to potential Salmonella contamination linked to an imported ingredient at the center of multiple recent outbreak investigations. The Hampton Grocers, Inc. of Montauk, New York, recalled 8-ounce pouches of its Lacnola Lactation Granola after an ingredient supplier reported a positive test for Salmonella in a product containing organic moringa powder, which is also used in the granola.

The product was sold nationwide through the company's website and other online retailers, including Amazon, between October 21, 2025, and August 12, 2026.
