Bergin Fruit And Nut CO INC recalled 600943 PISTACHIOS KERNELS in a Class I action — the FDA's most serious tier, reserved for products with a reasonable probability of causing serious health consequences or death on Jun 6, 2013.

The recall was triggered by possible Salmonella contamination: "Bergin Fruit and Nut Company is initiating a recall on a number of pistachio products manufactured using pistachios supplied by ARO Pistachio Inc. Salmonella was found in the environment at the ARO Pistachio Inc. company." Salmonella is one of the most common causes of U.S. foodborne illness, with symptoms that typically appear within six hours to six days of exposure.

The product reached multiple states, recorded by the FDA as "CA, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, MI, MN, NV, ND, PA, SD, TN, WI." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Saint Paul, MN. The recall covers 401.07 of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Jul 31, 2013), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved. The historical record remains useful for tracking a brand's recall pattern over time.
