The following kashrus alert is from the Orthodox Rabbinical Council Of San Francisco on May 5, 2008.

Please be advised that it has come to our attention that produce from PREMIUM FRESH FARMS OF SALINAS, CA is being sold under an obsolete kosher certification which has been altered to make it appear as current. Certification for that facility was discontinued two years ago by the Orthodox Rabbinical Council of San Francisco for cause and the certificate was nullified. Any kashruth certificate signifying our approval of their products is false and misleading.
