A California-based supplier of organic foods said it is recalling walnuts sold in 19 states after it was notified of 12 recorded cases of E. coli.

Gibson Farms, of Hollister. Calif., voluntarily recalled its Organic Light Halves and Pieces shelled walnuts that were sold to distributors in California and Washington state, according to a company notice posted this week on the Food and Drug Administration’s website.
