Update 8/26/2020: We have successfully completed our onion recall and are not sourcing onions from Thomson International until FDA completes the investigation. We will resume shipping onions from suppliers that are not impacted by this recall for menus beginning 8/31/2020.
The Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control have issued a food safety alert regarding onions produced by Thomson International, Inc. based in Bakersfield, California due to potential contamination with Salmonella bacteria. Since the investigation by FDA is still on-going, we have removed all onions from our upcoming menus and swapped them for shallots, or other ingredients, until we determine that the onion supply is safe. Although we have not received any reports of illness linked to this outbreak, impacted customers have been notified via email. If you have any questions or concerns, you can reach out to support at contact@blueapron.com
