Badia Spices pine nuts + Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland and New Jersey

Badia Spices pine nuts + Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland and New Jersey, Badia Spices Inc. is recalling approximately 3,800 pounds of Pinenuts because they may be contaminated with Salmonella Enteritidis, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.

Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis. Illness onset is typically 12 to 72 hours after consumption.

The pine nuts were sold in retail stores in Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and New Jersey between June 2011 and October 2011. No illnesses have been reported for any Badia brand pine nuts.

The bulk pine nuts have been linked to an outbreak of Salmonella Enteritidis illness and samples of the bulk pine nuts analyzed by the Food and Drug Administration and various states have tested positive for Salmonella.
