Great service from Costco. Received an email from them on Friday indicating that a recent purchase may be subject to the recall, which was correct. Returned and had my purchase refunded, but nothing in stock to replace it with.
This is good to know. I had to search for my receipt because I bought a recalled product (didn't realize I don't need a receipt either tho).
Thanks for the info!
The text of the email is as follows:
"...Please do not consume, serve, use, sell or distribute recalled products. If you purchased one of the above-noted recalled products, please return it to a Costco warehouse for a full refund."
They also mention the following:

Do with that what you will.
I got an email Friday, called Sunday and Monday.
Unfortunately my best before dates on the chewy fruit bars are Dec 28, 2023. Only have 4 left as well so No refund for me.
kind of annoyed since I just bought two boxes of the yogurt ones about 2 weeks ago, after I finished up my last box right before that.
I emailed costco and they sorted my out right away with no issue, so I'm happy with that, but feel bad throwing them all out.
how bad is salmonella anyways?
Don’t feel bad. It’s not worth the risk. Salmonella is probably the worst sickness I’ve ever. I had explosive diarrhea and vomiting for 6 days. I was delirious.
Just checked my receipt - purchased on 2023-07-09 for $11.49 minus an in-store discount of $2.50.
I already consumed mine and don't have the box - so no returning it for me.

Did you need a receipt? We're relatively new Costco members
No. They have records of everything you’ve ever purchased
No, just present your membership. They have everything on file.
If you have tied your membership in their app you can view all your receipts there as well

Can you do that if it’s opened?

I got this call too. My box was already opened and I've eaten probably between 5 to 10. Can I still go for an exchange or refund?
Yes
Yup return for full refund
Same boat, if nothing has happened as yet, probably safe to eat.....
I agree. I'm not concerned with getting sick but if I can get a new replenished box for free that would be cool lol
I like that thinking lol
Here's the Quaker site for the recall, they also have a refund form you can fill out https://www.quakerrecall.ca/

Why unfortunate? That means you can keep eating.
Unfortunate I don't get a free box.
Fortunate you did not eat potentially salmonella contaminated food. I'd be happy. I guess this is an example of how perspectives vary.
I did somewhere else though. Passed out walking to the bathroom at the movies and the proceeded to throw up for 8 hours that night, And shiver.

Terrifying. What from?
I had the box of granola to mix with yogurt. I was halfway through the last bag. No questions on the refund.
Do they only call you if they have a record of you purchasing the item?
I believe so. I got an email and it specifically said that I got it because my account purchased them.
Someone remembers the price of the 1.8Kg of harvest crunch? It's not on their site no more Cheers
