Bettergoods Pistachio Nut Butter

The recalled product is sold in a 6.7oz (190g) glass jar. It carries UPC 194346207961 and Lot Code LB028ACP04, with an expiration date of January 28, 2027 printed on the jar.

Walmart was informed on July 7 that the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services had tested three jars purchased at one of its stores. The tests found salmonella in the product, which triggered the recall.

19 States

The distribution list reaches Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, South Dakota, Tennessee, Washington and Wyoming. Shoppers in those states need to check the jar details against the UPC, Lot Code and expiration date.

Three jars tested positive, but the recall covers a broader distribution network, so the practical step for customers is to compare the package they have at home with the printed identifiers before using it. No illnesses had been reported when the recall was announced.

Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services

The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services bought the jars at one Walmart store and tested them before the recall was announced. The result tied the recall to a specific lot, not a general pantry item category, which gives shoppers a clear way to sort affected jars from unaffected ones.

The open question is how many total jars were distributed before the recall, since the available facts identify the three tested jars and the 19-state distribution area but do not give the full count. For anyone who bought the product, the safest next step is to check the UPC 194346207961, Lot Code LB028ACP04 and the January 28, 2027 expiration date before using it.
