Approximately 1 million pounds of pistachio nuts, both inshell and shelled, have been recalled due to a risk that they may be contaminated with salmonella and cause food poisoning. The pistachio recall was issued by the FDA and Setton Pistachio of Terra Bella, Inc. on March 30, 2009, after Kraft Foods discovered the presence of multiple different strains of salmonella in pistachio nuts processed by Setton, which were used in their “Back to Nature” Trail Mix.
Fard Company purchases Pistachio from Paramount Farms which is not effected by this recall and its products remain safe to eat. The following notice was released by Paramount Farms.
Paramount Farms Pistachios Are Not Involved in FDA Recall
The FDA has announced a nationwide voluntary recall of pistachios from Setton Farms. Paramount Farms is not part of this recall, and we believe our products are safe. We have stringent quality control procedures in place, and our products consistently exceed USDA specifications. We are committed to producing only the highest quality products, and the health and well-being of consumers who enjoy our pistachios is our foremost concern. Consistent with this commitment and in light of the current situation, we are testing all products in our inventory and are committed to testing all pistachio shipments going forward as a further precautionary measure. For more information about the voluntary recall by Setton Farms, visit www.fda.gov/pistachios. Information can also be found at the California Department of Public Health at www.cdph.ca.gov.
