Ritz Cracker Sandwiches and Ritz Bitz products are under a voluntary recall over salmonella concerns, according to the manufacturer. 

Mondelez Global LLC, the makers of Ritz cracker products, announced today that there is a voluntary recall of Ritz sandwich products in the United States, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The recall stems from concern that a whey powder used in the products could be contaminated with Salmonella. 

A recall of the whey product used in the Ritz cracker sandwiches recently prompted the recall of several Swiss Rolls distributed by Flowers Foods, Inc.

Mondelez Global says there have not been any complaints or illness reported due to these products. The recall is being conducted strictly as a precaution. Consumers can contact the company with questions at 1-844-366 -1171.
