A recall has been issued for cucumbers sold in Texas, along with 17 other states, over concerns that they have been contaminated with salmonella.
According to NBC DFW, the cucumbers were packaged "in bulk cardboard containers labeled with the "Pamela" brand, a generic white box with a sticker that provides the implicated grower's name, "Agrotato, S.A. de C.V.," or a clear PamPak branded bag of 6 individual cucumbers with the UPC 8 2540107010 6."
Baloian Farms of Arizona is recalling all sizes of whole American cucumbers sold between Oct. 12 and Nov. 26 after learning about the potential contamination.
Luis Corella, President of Baloian Farms of Arizona Co., Inc., said in a statement, "We at Baloian Farms are working in conjunction with our grower with the FDA to protect our customers and consumers. Food Safety has always been a top priority as we want to provide safe and nutritious food for our families and consumers.
"We have been working diligently with the authorities and the implicated farm to determine the possible source."
