Onions sold at Pittsburgh-area Giant Eagle and Market District locations are included in a nationwide recall related to potential salmonella contamination.
Giant Eagle posted the alert about Thomson International and Onions52 brand products on its website Sunday.
Giant Eagle shoppers who have purchased onions included in the recall between now and early June may also have received an automated phone call alerting them to the recall.
The recall includes both bulk and bagged onions.
Customers are eligible to receive a refund if they bring a qualifying receipt to their local Giant Eagle or Market District. Any remaining onions should be thrown out, according to the Giant Eagle recall notice.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Friday announced the nationwide salmonella newport outbreak is linked to red onions from the Bakersfield, Calif.-based Thomson International, Inc.
White, yellow and sweet onions could also be contaminated.
