Shelled pistachios sold in Ontario recalled due to salmonella contamination
Shelled pistachios sold in Ontario restaurants and hotels have been recalled due to salmonella contamination. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) said Friday that they are pulling Habibi branded Pistachio Kernels from establishments across Ontario and Quebec. The government agency labelled it a 'Class 2' recall meaning there's a 'moderate risk that consuming the food may lead to short-term or non-life threatening health problems.' Salmonella spreads through food and sickness comes in many forms, according to the CFIA. You might not get sick but symptoms generally start six to 72 hours after being exposed. Most people get chills, a fever, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, stomach cramps or a sudden headache. Usually the symptoms will end in four to seven days though some get hit with more serious sickness that requires hospital care or could even lead to death, the government agency warns. The recalled Habibi pistachios come in 10-kilogram packages and have a universal product of code '70847446000626,' and a lot number of '361.24IR41 B.B. JAN 2027.'
