There were some new recalls today of nut products tied to the pistachio recall in the US. Two of the recalls affected products sold here in Winnipeg.
The specific recalls are as follows:
- Red pistachios sold at the Frontier Fruit & Nut kiosks at Polo Park and Kildonan Shopping Centre. They were sold in assorted sizes, some with no brand name. These nuts were sold between November 11, 2008 and December 30, 2008. (I believe this was the gift nut and snack stalls set up in the mall during Christmas.)
- Red pistachios sold in 150g packages at The Almond Tree in the Forks Market. These were sold between November 12, 2008 and April 15, 2009.
These products may be contaminated with salmonella, which is never any fun to get, so please don’t eat them if you happen to have any in your possession. Either contact the store or dispose of the nuts.
