May 5, 2026: FDA Publishes Pork King Good’s Recall Notice

The FDA published Pork King Good’s voluntary recall notice for its 3oz Sour Cream & Onion Seasoning bottles on May 5, 2026[1]. The notice lists three lots, citing a possible Salmonella risk in one ingredient. Pork King Good said it had identified every bottle made with the affected ingredient. The company was working with retail partners to remove the product from store shelves.

April 29, 2026: Pork King Good Announces the Recall to Retailers and USDA

Pork King Good announced the voluntary recall to its retail partners on April 29, 2026. It notified the USDA and worked with the agency as the process moved forward. At that point, the company had not confirmed any illness linked to the seasoning. It asked retail partners across its distribution network to pull the three affected lots from shelves without delay. The FDA published its notice six days later.

Which Pork King Good Seasoning Bottles Are Affected?

Pork King Good recalled one product line: Sour Cream & Onion Seasoning sold in 3oz bottles. The recalled bottles carry the following lot numbers and best-if-used-by dates:

• Lot 329-5, best if used by May 30, 2027
• Lot 004-6, best if used by June 30, 2027
• Lot 029-6, best if used by June 30, 2027

The three lots total 2,651 bottles. Compare the lot number on your bottle against this list before using, returning, or discarding the product. A bottle with a different lot number is not part of this recall and does not need to be returned or destroyed under this notice.

Why Was Pork King Good Seasoning Recalled?

Pork King Good recalled the Sour Cream & Onion Seasoning line because a milk-powder ingredient used in the blend carried a potential Salmonella risk. The ingredient traced back to a separate recall by California Dairies, Inc., which supplies milk powder to food manufacturers, including Pork King Good. Once Pork King Good learned that California Dairies had recalled the milk powder, the company reviewed which of its own products used that ingredient. It traced the affected supply to three lots of Sour Cream & Onion Seasoning. Pork King Good then pulled the affected bottles from its retail partners and began working with them to remove any remaining product from store shelves.

Reported Incidents, Injuries, or Illnesses

Pork King Good said neither the company nor its suppliers had confirmed any illness or injury tied to the recalled seasoning. That was true as of the April 29, 2026 announcement. The company said its own internal testing had not identified any impacted finished goods, and third-party lab testing on finished goods was continuing. No illness has been confirmed among the recall’s 2,651 bottles across the three affected lots, so a single report would not by itself prove that a specific bottle caused it. No lawsuit or multidistrict litigation tied to this recall appears on the federal courts’ pending-MDL list, based on the docket reviewed for this page[2].
