Money Map Press chief strategist Shah Gilani, Spotlight Asset Group CIO Shana Sissel, and Wealth Enhancement Group SVP Nicole Webb discuss their outlook for the markets.
Sauer Brands, Inc. is voluntarily recalling select The Spice Hunter products over concerns that they may be contaminated with salmonella. The company said the recall comes after a supplier flagged the potential presence of salmonella in specific lots of organic parsley that had been provided for use.
“Those lots of parsley were used on two specific days in our production,” the recall noticed posted on the FDA website said. “We are recalling other products produced on those same days out of an abundance of caution regarding potential cross-contamination.”

Salmonella causes an estimated 1.35 million infections and 420 deaths in the U.S. each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Most people who contract the illness will experience diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps, with symptoms usually occurring within six hours to six days after infection, and lasting up to seven days. Most will recover without specific treatment, but severe cases may require hospitalization.
