Federal officials issued a public health alert Monday night warning people to watch for signs of parasitic infections if they have eaten any of more than two dozen varieties of wraps and salads sold nationwide by retailers including Kroger and Trader Joe’s.
The distributor of the ready-to-eat products said lettuce supplied by Fresh Express is responsible for the health alert.

The products are packaged under a variety of brand names.
