Chocolate bar brand Spring & Mulberry said Monday that it has recalled one lot of its “Mint Leaf Date-Sweetened Chocolate” bars over potential salmonella contamination.

The Raleigh, North Carolina, company wrote in a recall notice posted by the FDA that the problem was identified after “routine testing by a third-party laboratory.” It has been available online and at “select retail partners nationwide” since mid-September.

No illnesses or other adverse effects have been reported to date, the company said.

Customers who purchased the affected product should dispose of it and can request a refund by contacting the company, officials said.
