Food recalls

[Darienne]

Pistachios are back on Canadian governmental recalls this morning.  So I finally went to Mr. Google for more in-depth reporting on the endless announcements of salmonella carrying pistachios.  And it is indeed a continuing item on the news.

 

"As of early December 2025, 155 people have been reported sick with Salmonella linked to an outbreak involving pistachios and pistachio products in Canada, with 24 hospitalizations but no deaths, primarily affecting Ontario and Quebec, though the actual number is likely higher as not everyone seeks testing. The outbreak involves various brands from Iran and has led to multiple recalls, with people falling ill from March to November 2025. "

 

What I don't understand is why this continues on and on and on.  Why can't all pistachio items from Iran be pulled off the shelves?
