Check your Hy-Vee potato salad — and don’t expect to buy more soon

July 2, 2022

Don’t plan on having Hy-Vee branded potato salad for your July 4 holiday weekend.

The Iowa grocer is withdrawing all varieties and all sizes of its Hy-Vee Potato Salad and Mealtime Potato Salad due to a presumptive positive microbial result on the line that the potatoes were processed on.

While final test results are not expected for approximately seven to 10 days, “due to the holiday weekend Hy-Vee elected to withdraw all product today from its shelves and service cases pending final test results,” the company said in a statement.

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 that includes South Dakota.

The expiration dates are between July 31, 2022, and Aug. 4, 2022.

No other Hy-Vee or Mealtime branded salads are impacted. So far, there have been no reports of illness or complaints involving theses products, Hy-Vee said.

Here’s a list of the potato salad that’s include:

  • Hy-Vee old fashioned potato salad
  • Hy-Vee county style potato salad
  • Hy-Vee dijon mustard potato salad
  • Hy-Vee green onion and egg potato salad
  • Hy-Vee chipotle ranch potato salad
  • Hy-Vee diced red skin potato salad
  • Hy-Vee loaded baked potato salad
  • Mealtime old fashioned potato salad
  • Mealtime county style potato salad
  • Mealtime dijon mustard potato salad

Customers who have purchased any of these products are urged not to consume the product and dispose of it or return it to their local Hy-Vee for a full refund.
