I know a lot of us are eating nuts as a healthy snack and just wanted to put this out there due to the increased risks of foodborne illness during pregnancy:

  • @MRSCORKER sorry I caused a pistachio craving!  As long as you can find some that aren't these you should be fine.

    I'm pretty sure with recalls if you take them to the store they'll give you a refund even if the package is opened, won't they?

  • Ooh thanks - I have a bag, but it is not the recalled lot number. Now I'm afraid to eat it though!


  • @simcal18 I threw the bag out I just have a zip loc bc I'm anal retentive about how my pantry looks
  • @mrszoess  I wish I cared more about my pantry.  I try so hard to buy containers and organize everything, but when I'm in a rush, I just throw everything in.  

    @simcal18  Thanks so much for posting this!!! I'm going to go and check which ones I have now.

  • @lauren0216 trust when I say it's taken a long time to get here 
  • Thanks for posting this! I had a bag of these in the pantry calling my name.  They are "safe" based on the lot number but I'm kinda turned off... and also just realized they are the "salt and pepper" flavor which is not my fave. Either way, this is good info.
