Costco pulled the item from stores after supplier Griffith Foods, Inc. announced a recall of an ingredient used in the meatloaf due to potential Salmonella contamination.

What You Should Do

If you have this meal kit in your refrigerator or freezer, do not consume it. You can return it to a local Costco for a full refund.

Those who have already eaten the meal should monitor for common Salmonella symptoms, which typically include fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain in otherwise healthy people. Symptoms usually appear 12 to 72 hours after infection
