If you love Dubai chocolate bars, you may want to keep an eye on an ongoing investigation into a salmonella outbreak linked to pistachio products. "Many people who became sick reported eating pistachios, and products containing pistachios, such as Dubai-style chocolate and pastry products," reads the notice. In early August, pistachio products from Habibi, Al Mokhtar Food Centre, and Dubai were recalled. PHAC advises Canadians to do the following:Check to see if you have the recalled products in your home or establishment by looking for the specific product name and size, UPC and codes in the recall alertsDo not consume, serve, use, sell or distribute recalled products or any product made with themReturn recalled products to the location where you purchased them. Hopefully, this outbreak will come to a close soon, like the recent months-long salmonella outbreak linked to salami products.
