Giant/Martin’s has received no reports of illnesses to date. However, due to the time required to trace a foodborne illness back to a specific food product, it is impossible to say whether or not any illnesses have occurred. Customers who have purchased these products should discard any unused portions and bring their purchase receipt to Giant/Martin’s for a full refund. Update: On March 31, Aurora Products announced it was expanding its recall of certain lots of Natural Walnuts and Trail Mixes Containing Walnuts to include one additional Private Label branded customer and to clarify the name of two products previously recalled. Additional Private Label Products That Use Store Branded Labeling Include: Ernest Klein Brand Products
