Sabor Farms, LLC., Salinas, CA is recalling fresh cilantro because it has the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. The cilantro was on store shelves in multiple states beginning January 14 and likely sold or removed from sale before January 28, 2011.
Consumers should be aware that the cilantro bunches do not contain identifying lot codes. Each bunch is sold with a distinctive, but general twist-tie for cilantro. Samples of the four relevant twist ties are pictured below. For purposes of retailers and distributors, the packaging from which test samples were taken did have specific lot codes that allowed for product traceback to the specific farm and harvest dates (Jan. 13 – 14, 2011). The potentially affected products are:

• Nature’s Reward label 05013 22/ 16 10 and 05014 22/ 16 10,
• Ocean Mist label 16 cisf 1j / 2 0113 11 and 16 cisf 1j / 2 011411,
• Tanimura & Antle label 22 01 13 151348 and 22 01 14 151348 and
• Queen Victoria label 16520142 / 16 10 22 and 16520132 / 16 10 22.
  No other brands or lots are affected.
  Consumers who believe they have purchased the affected cilantro should not consume any of the product. Consumers who have concerns may contact Sabor Farms at (831) 970-9754 or by email at info@saborfarms.com .
