Conagra, the parent company of Duncan Hines, just announced it's recalling four types of its boxed cake mixes due to a salmonella outbreak. The FDA reports that it "worked with Conagra Brands to initiate a voluntary recall of Duncan Hines Classic White cake mix," as it's currently investigating five salmonella cases that have been linked back to that specific mix. Out of an abundance of caution, Conagra has also voluntarily recalled three other boxed mixes that were made made during the same time period: Classic Yellow, Classic Butter Golden, and Signature Confetti.
