If You Have This Condiment in Your Fridge, Throw it Out Now
House-Autry Mills, Inc. is expanding a recall of House-Autry Tartar Sauce as a precaution after its co-manufacturer verified spoilage associated with the condiment.
Though independent lab tests revealed no signs of pathogenic organisms in the bottles, they did uncover elevated yeast numbers in one of the ingredients: dill pickle relish. A voluntary recall was first announced on Jan. 22.
