A Pistachio Recall... Again??
You may have thought it was safe to eat pistachios, but think again -- two brands should be avoided because they may have been part of the original batch recalled in March. Apparently, these California-produced pistachios, which may be tainted with salmonella, may have been repackaged and then sold in airports and hotels. The two brands are California Prime Produce and Orange County Orchards.
You probably don't have these brands hanging out in your pantry, unless you do your grocery shopping at airports or hotels, so there's no need to panic. There's also no reason to avoid products made with pistachios -- those are safe, too. But I thought I'd give you a heads-up just in case. Obviously, toss them if you have them lying around, and stick to other brands if you're making, say, rice pilaf with toasted pistachios or pistachio-crusted salmon.
