A California company is recalling 37,318 lbs. of pepper products that were distributed between March 15th of this year and May 6th. Miravalle Foods, Inc. recalled their Miravalle Chile California and Miravalle Chile Nuevo Mexico brands of peppers due to possible salmonella food poisoning contamination. These peppers were distributed to customers in CA, CO, UT, NC, NE, ID, OR and NV.
These products were distributed to only a small group of customers through distributors, retail stores and direct delivery, and include the following:
3oz. (UPC Code: 7 12810-00301 & 7 12810-00304)
6 oz. (UPC Code: 7 12810-60001 & 7 1280-60004)

The products are packaged in clear plastic under the “Miravalle Chile California & Miravalle Chile Nuevo Mexico” Brand names and in bulk 25lb. boxes.
A random sample of the products revealed the presence of salmonella following lab analysis conducted by the US Food and Drug Administration. Miravalle Foods, Inc. is located in El Monte, California. Consumers who have purchased any of the products involved in this recall are asked to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Questions or concerns can be directed to the company at 1-626-575-7551 between the hours of 8 am and 4 pm PST Monday through Friday.
While salmonella food poisoning usually produces only mild symptoms, in some cases it can be fatal. Symptoms include abdominal pain and fever, diarrhea, and vomiting. Those most at risk for serious complications include children, those with a compromised immune system and the elderly. If you have eaten any of the above products and become ill, see your doctor at once.
Those who become seriously ill after consuming foods contaminated with salmonella may have legal rights. To discuss your situation and learn if you may be entitled to compensation for medical or other costs related to your illness, contact a New York food poisoning attorney.
