Organic walnuts sold in 19 states have been linked to an outbreak of E. coli, with at least a dozen cases reported in California and Washington. The affected nuts, distributed by Gibson Farms and sold in stores like Whole Foods, have led to hospitalizations and severe illnesses. Additionally, two Planters products are being recalled due to a listeria risk. Consumers are advised to check for recalled products and maintain hygiene to prevent contamination.
