A recall has been issued for Dry Roasted Baking Macadamia Nuts due to potential Salmonella contamination. The recall was announced via the FDA’s Enforcement Reports, which means it lacks detailed information typically found in standard recall notices, including any reported illnesses linked to the product.
The nuts, produced by American Nuts based in Sylmar, California, were distributed to two locations in Hawaii. These unsalted halves are often used for baking, cooking, salads, and ice cream. They are sold in containers weighing 20 ounces (1 pound 4 ounces), bearing the UPC code 8 60011 44301 8 and the lot code 307HMNC25L3. Approximately 2,700 units of this product are affected by the recall.
Consumers who have purchased these macadamia nuts are advised not to consume them and to refrain from using them in any recipes. Instead, they should dispose of the nuts securely in a trash can with a tight-fitting lid. The recommended method for disposal involves double bagging or wrapping the nuts to prevent visibility. Alternatively, customers can return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund.
Those who have already consumed the nuts should be vigilant and monitor for symptoms consistent with Salmonella food poisoning over the coming week. If any symptoms develop, individuals are advised to consult their healthcare provider for further guidance.
