General Mills recalls some Gold Medal flour products due to salmonella

MINNEAPOLIS -- General Mills announced a voluntary national recall of some flour products due to potential salmonella presence.

The recall applies to 5 pound and 10 pound bags of Gold Medal unbleached all purpose flour and 2 pound and 5 pound bags of Gold Medal bleached all purpose flour. Both types of flour have a "better if used by" date of March 27, 2024 and March 28, 2024.

All other types of Gold Medal Flour are not affected by the recall, according to General Mills.
