Sam’s Club Supplement Linked to Salmonella—What You Need to Know
Understanding the Member’s Mark Super Greens Powder Recall
If you’ve been incorporating greens powder into your morning smoothie, it might be time to take a closer look at the label. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have initiated an investigation into Member’s Mark Super Greens Powder, a dietary supplement available nationwide at Sam’s Club and online. This comes after nearly a dozen cases of Salmonella were reported across seven states. As a result, all lots of the product are now being recalled.
The outbreak has already led to several hospitalizations and has been traced back to a single contaminated batch of moringa leaf powder imported from India. Here’s what officials have confirmed so far—and what you should do if you’ve purchased or consumed this supplement.
What We Know About the Recall
According to the FDA, Member’s Mark Super Greens Powder has been removed from shelves nationwide and should not be consumed, sold, or served. Customers are advised to discard any remaining product or return it to Sam’s Club for a refund. The affected supplement contains moringa leaf powder linked to Salmonella contamination that originated from Vallon Farm Direct, a supplier based in Jodhpur, India.
Health officials have confirmed 11 infections across Florida, Kansas, Michigan, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. Three individuals have been hospitalized. Testing conducted in Michigan and Virginia detected the same Salmonella Richmond strain found in the recalled supplement, prompting a full-scale investigation into other products that may contain the same batch of moringa.
Symptoms of salmonella infection—typically including fever, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, nausea, and vomiting—can appear within 12 to 72 hours after consumption. Most people recover without treatment, but young children, older adults, and those with compromised immune systems face a higher risk of severe illness.
What You Should Do
If you have Member’s Mark Super Greens Powder at home, throw it away immediately or return it to your local Sam’s Club. Even unopened containers should be discarded, since the contamination source was traced to an ingredient used across multiple production runs. The FDA also advises washing and sanitizing any surfaces or utensils that may have come into contact with the powder.
Consumers who experience symptoms after consuming the product should contact a healthcare provider and report the illness to their local health department or through the FDA’s online complaint form. As the investigation continues, additional moringa-based products could be added to the recall list, so it’s worth checking the FDA’s outbreak advisory page for updates.
Additional Recalls and Consumer Safety
This recall is part of a broader trend of food safety concerns. Recently, millions of eggs were recalled due to Salmonella concerns, and more than two million pounds of jerky sold at Costco and Sam’s Club were also recalled. These incidents highlight the importance of staying informed about product recalls and taking necessary precautions to protect your health.
By staying vigilant and following the guidance provided by the FDA and CDC, consumers can help prevent further illness and ensure their safety. Always check for updates on recalls and be proactive in managing the products you bring into your home.
