A public health alert has been issued for select Mama Cozzi’s breakfast pizza, which may be contaminated with salmonella.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued a public health alert on April 30 for two types of Mama Cozzi’s breakfast pizza because the products might contain dairy ingredients contaminated with salmonella. The FSIS expects more products to be added to the alert.
The issue was discovered when the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) found that multiple FSIS-regulated establishments received dry milk powder that had been recalled, according to the public health alert.
As of April 30, no adverse reactions due to the consumption of the breakfast pizzas had been reported.

What Are the Symptoms of Salmonella?
Consumption of food contaminated with salmonella can cause salmonellosis, one of the most common bacterial foodborne illnesses. The most common symptoms include diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and fever.
Salmonellosis may come on within six hours to six days after consumption and can last four to seven days. Most people recover without treatment, but older adults, infants, and people with weakened immune systems are more likely to develop severe illness.
