NEW YORK, June 17 (Xinhua) -- Tubs of pistachio cream are being recalled after nearly half a dozen people reported becoming ill with salmonella infections in the United States, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Emek-brand Pistachio Cream -- a product sold online for wholesale distributors, restaurants, and food service locations across the country -- has been linked to a salmonella outbreak in at least two states, the FDA said.

The product, a nut butter spread used in desserts, including ice cream, is manufactured by Emek Dogal Saglik Urunleri Iklim Gida Insaat San Tic Ltd Sti in Türkiye and imported into the United States.

"The FDA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in collaboration with state and local partners, are investigating the multistate outbreak," reported USA Today about the development.
