Conventional Italian Parsley, iceless pack, sold 60 bunches to a carton under the Pacific Fresh Vegetables carton label from Pacific International Marketing of Salinas, California and distributed by Dynasty Farms, UPC 40695 80125, is being recalled over potential contamination with Salmonella.

The recall covers 4 cases, each holding 60 bunches, from lot 25SAFPRIS56. The product was distributed in Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Minnesota, Michigan, Nevada and Ohio.

The FDA has classified this as a Class I recall, its most serious category, used where there is a reasonable probability of serious health consequences or death.

Parsley is typically eaten raw, so anyone holding an affected bunch should not eat it and should follow the retailer's instructions.
