Pistachios recalled – another salmonella alert

Here we go again. Not long after the huge peanut recall comes another salmonella problem in nuts – this time in pistachios.

The Food and Drug Administration says California processor, Setton Pistachio, has recalled about one million pounds of pistachio products because they might be contaminated with salmonella. The company decided to recall the nuts after one of its customers – Kraft Foods – found salmonella in its Back To Nature Trail Mix.

The FDA warns us not to eat any pistachios until the investigation into the tainted nuts is over. You can find a list of products affected by the recall here.
