TRACY, Calif. (KABC) -- California produce company Taylor Farms of Tracy issued a voluntary recall of some lots of its tomatoes and salad kits because of a possible salmonella contamination.

Expo Fresh Roma tomatoes were shipped to Costco locations in Los Angeles and Hawthorne in California, Tacoma and Lynwood in Washington and Las Vegas in Nevada. Tomatoes packed on Sept. 5 or Sept. 6 are affected.

Sicilian Vegetable Salad - served at Safeway, Vons and Pavilions grocery stores in California, Nevada and Arizona - is also being recalled. The salad kits have use-by dates of Sept. 20 and Sept. 21, and contain the tomatoes in question.

No illnesses were reported, but salmonella was found in routine testing.
