John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. has voluntarily recalled multiple seasoned snack-mix products after learning a third‑party seasoning supplier used dry milk powder that was itself the subject of a separate recall, the company and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said in a notice published May 6. The move affects mixes sold under several brands and at major retailers, including Target, and is being taken as a precautionary measure because of the potential for Salmonella contamination.
The affected items were manufactured using the seasoning batches tied to the recalled dry milk powder. Although the company said those seasoning lots tested negative for Salmonella prior to use, JBSS said it is issuing the recall out of an abundance of caution. As of the FDA notice, the company had not received reports of illness linked to the products. Consumers who have purchased any of the recalled mixes are advised not to eat them and to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund or replacement.
The recall covers products distributed under the Fisher, Squirrel Brand and Southern Style Nuts labels through retail stores, e‑commerce channels and QVC, and one Good & Gather item that was sold at Target. Examples listed by the FDA include Fisher Tex Mex Trail Mix (30 oz, best by 08/06/27), Squirrel Brand Travelers Mix (16 oz, best by 04/30/27), and multiple sizes and pack weights of Southern Style Nuts Gourmet Hunter Mix and Hunter Mix with best‑by dates ranging from early 2027 into March. Target removed all Good & Gather Mexican Street Corn Trail Mix (8 oz, Lot No. 6082GY5D, best by 23/MAR/2027) from stores and online following the national recall, a Target spokesperson told USA TODAY.

Public‑health authorities warn that Salmonella infections typically cause watery diarrhea, sometimes with blood or mucus, and severe abdominal cramps; fever, nausea and vomiting can also occur. Symptoms usually begin six hours to six days after exposure and last four to seven days. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advises people to seek medical attention for prolonged diarrhea or vomiting, high fever, signs of dehydration or bloody stools.
