Marathon Ventures recalls Macadamia nuts due to possible Salmonella florida contamination. Consumers should check product labels for best by dates and UPC codes to determine if affected.
Macadamia nuts may have possible contamination with Salmonella florida.
Marathon Ventures is recalling several types of macadamia nuts that may contain Salmonella florida. This contamination could cause foodborne illness if eaten, so affected consumers should stop using the product.
Salmonella florida is a bacteria that can cause food poisoning. If the nuts are contaminated, eating them could lead to symptoms like diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps. The risk is low but possible, especially for vulnerable individuals.
Anyone who purchased Macadamia nuts from the listed brands and retailers between 2014 and 2015. Those with compromised immune systems are at higher risk for foodborne illness.
Check for products labeled 'Western Family', 'Shur Fine', 'HyVee', 'market pantry', 'Pears Gourmet', 'CWD Cash-Wa Distributing', or 'Pegler Sysco'. Look for best by dates from 2014 to 2015 and specific UPC codes listed in the recall.
Look for the brand name and best by dates on the packaging to confirm if the product is affected.
If you have any of the recalled macadamia nuts, discard them immediately to avoid potential foodborne illness.
No, only specific brands and UPC codes listed in the recall. Check the product labels for best by dates and UPC codes to determine if affected.
