These products were sold to retailers in Kansas City KS in March of 2014.
The voluntary recall was initiated after FDA sampling detected Listeria monocytogenes in walnuts from a California supplier, Golden State Foods, that also supplied the walnuts that were packed for retail in Kansas City, KS. Even though third party lab testing of product packed did not reveal any harmful pathogen, in cooperating with FDA and for care of our customers we are participating in this voluntary recall. All walnuts processed in the facility during the same timeframe as the product found positive are being recalled to ensure the highest degree of public safety.
Consumers who have purchased walnuts are urged not to consume them. Consumers are advised to dispose of them or return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Consumers with any questions may call Glen Kerby at (623)-707-5604, 8:30a.m. to 5 p.m. CST weekdays.
