Two Million Pounds Pistachio Recalled

Salmonella contamination has lead to a major recall of two million pounds of pistachios.

Setton Pistachio of Terra Bella, based in Terra Bella, Calif., decided to recall its 2008 crop after one of its customers, Kraft Foods, found several types of salmonella during routine analysis of the product. Kraft Foods alerted the Food and Drug Administration of its findings on March 24.
