UBC Food Distributors Ground Black Pepper
UBC Food Distributors in Dearborn Michigan is recalling the Ground Black Pepper under the Baraka brand name in 7oz plastic containers due to potential contamination with Salmonella. The specific product being recalled is the 7oz size, packaged in plastic containers, with a UPC code of 8 22514 26626 6.
The recalled "black pepper" was distributed nationwide in various retail stores. The product is packaged in a 7-ounce clear plastic container with an expiration date of January 2026 printed on the back label.
No cases of illness related to this issue have been reported so far.
The contamination was discovered when the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (MDARD) alerted the company about the presence of Salmonella in a routine state surveillance sample collected by the New York Department of Agriculture and Markets. As a precautionary measure, production of the product has been halted while the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the company conduct an investigation to identify the source of the problem.
Consumers who have purchased the 7-ounce container of ground black pepper are advised to return it to the place of purchase to receive a full refund.

Salmonella
Consumption of food contaminated with Salmonella can cause salmonellosis, one of the most common bacterial foodborne illnesses. The most common symptoms of salmonellosis are diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and fever within 6 hours to 6 days after eating the contaminated product. The illness usually lasts 4 to 7 days. Most people recover without treatment. In some people, however, the diarrhea may be so severe that the patient needs to be hospitalized. Older adults, infants, and persons with weakened immune systems are more likely to develop a severe illness. Individuals concerned about an illness should contact their health care provider.
