Trader Joe’s issued on Friday a recall of its Raw Cashew Pieces after the company said the supplier of the nuts warned that some bags may contain Salmonella bacteria.

“Out of an abundance of caution, all lots of Trader Joe’s Raw Cashew Pieces have been removed from store shelves and their sale has been suspended while we investigate this matter,” Trader Joe’s said on its website.

Trader Joe’s is looking for bags labelled “Best before 07.17.2016TF4.” Customers can bring the bag to any store for a refund.

Salmonella can cause illnesses such as food poisoning and typhoid fever.

The recall affects stores in 30 states, including Maine, New Hampshire Massachusetts, Connecticut and Vermont.
