(Des Moines, Iowa) – Officials with Hy-Vee announced on Friday, their immediate, voluntary withdrawal of all potato salad varieties from their stores. They made the announcement based on a presumptive positive microbial test result. Although they don’t expect final test results for roughly 7-10 days, the withdrawal was announced out of an abundance of caution for the upcoming holiday weekend.

The voluntary withdrawal includes all varieties and all sizes of Hy-Vee Potato Salad and Mealtime Potato Salad available from grab-and-go refrigerated cases and/or deli service cases in all Hy-Vee, Hy-Vee Drugstore and Dollar Fresh Market locations – as we well as Hy-Vee Fast and Fresh convenience stores – across the company’s eight-state region of Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota and Wisconsin. The expiration dates are between July 31, 2022, and Aug. 4, 2022.
