General Mills Recalls Gold Medal Bleached and Unbleached Flour

General Mills has issued a voluntary national recall of two-, five- and 10-pound bags of its Gold Medal Unbleached and Bleached All Purpose Flour.

The recalled flour has a “better if used by” date of March 27, 2024, and March 28, 2024.

The recall is being issued for the potential presence of Salmonella Infantis, which was discovered during the sampling of the five-pound bag product.

Healthy persons infected with Salmonella Infantis, a bacteria, often experience nausea, diarrhea, fever and abdominal pains.

The CDC estimates there are 1.2 million cases annually in the U.S. Typically, symptoms start within six hours to six days after infection and last four to seven days.
This recall only affects the two date codes of Gold Medal Unbleached All Purpose Flour in the five- and ten pound bags and two date codes of Gold Medal Bleached All Purpose Flour in the two- and five-pound bags.

All other types of Gold Medal Flour are not affected by this recall.

Consumers are asked to check their pantries and dispose of the product affected by this recall.

Consumers who have had to discard products covered by this recall may contact General Mills Consumer Relations at 1-800-230-8103.
