WARREN A Warren-based food manufacturer has issued a recall for specific packages of unsalted mixed nuts sold at Wegmans Food Markets across the East Coast due to potential salmonella contamination.

Mellace Family Brands California, Inc., headquartered in Warren, announced the recall for 34-ounce tubs and 11.5-ounce bags of Wegmans Deluxe Mixed Nuts Unsalted.

According to the company, the issue was discovered after a supplier found a lot of raw pistachios tested positive for salmonella during routine screening. Those pistachios were subsequently used in the production of the mixed nut products.

Salmonella is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.

The company stated that no illnesses associated with the recalled products have been reported to date.

The affected items were sold between Nov. 3 and Dec. 1, 2025, at Wegmans locations in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.

Consumers can identify the recalled products by the following markings:
